Chipotle Chicken Salad Ingredients
Here are the ingredients we choose to make this chipotle chicken salad but this is a
great opportunity to use what you have on hand so feel free to swap things out as
you see fit. Scroll down for the complete recipe with ingredient measurements.
Lettuce: We used a spring mix of lettuce to make this salad. You can use any
lettuce you prefer.
Veggies: For the veggies, we used corn, bell peppers, tomatoes, and onions.
Chicken: The crispy chicken on this salad is warm sliced air fryer chicken
tenders (recipe here). Another great option would be to use grilled chipotle
chicken (recipe here).
Toppings: We also topped the salad with sliced avocado, black beans, and
tortilla strips.
Cheese: Shredded pepper jack cheese is perfect for this salad but you could
also use Monterey Jack or cheddar.
Dressing: For the dressing, we used homemade chipotle ranch dressing (recipe
here) and hot honey (recipe here) but the store-bought versions would work
too.

How To Make Chipotle Chicken Salad
Simply prep the ingredients, assemble the salad, and add the dressing. The step that
takes the longest is chopping the veggies so if you are short on time look for pre-
chopped options at your grocery store. Scroll down for the printable recipe card and
complete instructions.

···
Chop: Prepare all of the ingredients by chopping the veggies, rinsing and
draining the black beans and corn, and mixing up the salad dressing (if using
homemade).
Assemble: Start with the lettuce and then add all of the toppings. If you are
preparing this chipotle chicken salad ahead of time, wait until serving time to
add the avocado, shredded cheese, chicken, and tortilla strips.
Dress: You can add the hot honey and chipotle ranch dressing to the whole
bowl of salad or leave it out so that each person can add their own.
