  • 1 avocado diced
  • 2 jalapeno diced
  • 1/3 cup feta crumbled
  • 1 large tomato diced
  • 1/2 cup canned corn

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons Mexican Crema sour cream or mayo
  • Juice form 1/2 lime
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Chicken

  • 1 chicken breast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin

Instructions
 

Chicken

  • Season your chicken with all the spices and oil and bake in your preheated oven at 450 degrees for 20-35 minutes depending on the size of your chicken breast.
  • When your chicken is ready, juices should run clear and it should read at least 170 degrees if using a thermometer.
  • When the chicken cools slightly, chop into large cubes.

Make Dressing

  • In a small bowl mix together all your dressing ingredients. Adjust any one ingredient to taste.

Salad

  • In a large bowl add all the ingredients of your salad.
  • Drizzle dressing over your salad, add your chicken into the salad and mix well.
  • I served with nacho chips and a side of pickled onions but serve as you like. It is absolutely delicious on it's own, ad a side or as a topping to let's say a bed of greens.
