Whip up a zesty Southwest salad with chicken, strawberries, mango, avocado, cilantro, and a refreshing margarita dressing.
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup frozen (thawed) nonalcoholic margarita mix
  • 1/4 cup olive or vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 1/4 lb)
  • 6 cups bite-size pieces assorted salad greens
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1 medium mango, peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 1 medium avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions:
  • Preheat your grill. To prepare the dressing, mix margarita mix, oil, and vinegar in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside 1/4 cup for basting chicken; save the rest for serving.
  • Grill the chicken over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, turning and brushing with 1/4 cup of dressing, until the juices run clear when the thickest pieces are cut.
  • Slice the chicken. Toss salad greens, chicken, and strawberries in a large bowl. Divide the mixture among 4 plates. Arrange mango and avocado around each salad. Sprinkle with cilantro and drizzle with reserved dressing.
