Recipe Summary Southwest Chicken Taco Salad
I love southwestern salads, so I decided to create my own at home. You can add black beans, corn, or spice it up with chili peppers.Ingredients | Clean Chicken Tacos1 ½ tablespoons paprika1 ½ teaspoons cayenne pepper1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder1 ½ teaspoons onion powder1 teaspoon ground black pepper1 teaspoon ground white pepper¾ teaspoon ground cumin¾ teaspoon dried oregano¾ teaspoon dried thyme¾ teaspoon salt4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves1 tablespoon vegetable oil4 tostada shells2 cups chopped romaine lettuce2 cups fresh salsa2 avocados - peeled, pitted, and sliced½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese½ cup sliced black olives½ cup ranch dressingDirectionsPreheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).Stir paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, white pepper, cumin, oregano, thyme, and salt together in a bowl.Rub spice mixture into each chicken breast to coat thoroughly.Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Cook chicken breasts in hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a baking dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.Bake in the preheated oven until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Slice chicken into strips.Fill each tostada shell with 1/2 cup lettuce. Divide chicken, salsa, avocados, Cheddar cheese, and olives between the tostada shells. Top each salad with ranch dressing.Info | Clean Chicken Tacosprep:
