Chicken Taco Salad

I eat salad for dinner basically every night except on my free day. I do try to mix up what kind of flavors I am eating. This is one of my favorite types of salad. It is also very easy to add tortillas for other people eating with me. I will have a salad and Arlen (my husband) will have Chicken Tacos. Here is how I make it!

Chicken: Depending on the amount of time I have I either boil or bake it. I will show you pictures today of how you bake it, but give instructions to boil it.

Step 1: have chicken thawed out and cut into strips. I used between 8 and 10oz of chicken breasts

Step 2: Grease a pan large enough for all the chicken.

Step 3: Put about 1-2 Tablespoons of vinegar in pan (I use red wine vinegar)

Step 4: Put a tablespoon of Taco seasoning in with the vinegar

Step 5: Put chicken in pan and mix up until all chicken is covered.

Step 6: Bake at 400 for about 20 minuets

Step 7: Take chicken out of oven, and shred it (see pics) stir up and bake another 5 minuets

add to salad and serve!



 







Salad: While chicken is baking make your salad, you can add any veggies you want, I usually add tomatoes, spinach, and lettuce, green onions and cheese to this salad. I use about 1 Tbls Ranch and 1-2 Tablespoons Salsa.  (I also use full fat ranch due to the amount of carbs added to fat free)
