Spring Ranch
Looking for a delicious and healthy recipe summer? You'll love it. My inspiration for this salad came after eating a similar dish at a restaurant popular view that I frequently visit. In reality, this is something my wife and I like to do occasionally. After eating a dish that we like, we like to go home and try again to create the recipe without knowing the ingredients. Loading … It's a fun way to see how sensitive taste buds are really ….
Farmers Market
I am lucky not to have a wonderful farmers market far from my house. There is just something special about shopping for products in a farmers market. The variety and quality of the products found in my local farmers market is far superior to boring old supermarket. I know I'm doing as close possible to organic, when shopping there, so if you have one near you, I recommend that you visit and see what they have to offer. Usually people are not very Helpful and knowledgeable of their products so do not be afraid to ask questions.
INGREDIENTS
Here are the ingredients that you need to make this wonderful salad:
– 1 pound of chicken cutlets, grilled and cut into strips – I like to use the thin sliced chicken is cooked really Quick and easy to cut into strips.
– Southwestern Spice Rub:
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 8 ounces mixed salad greens – I like to use a mixture of Baby Romaine, radicchio and Tango. If you do not can find fresh vegetables, I recommend buying a bag of Fresh Express salad leaves mixed brand. He displays a handful of brands and Fresh Express salad is by far the better in my opinion. Vegetables are always fresh, crispy and delicious. Everything is pre-washed and no preservatives.
2 Cut into small ripe avocados fragments – is very important that you choose ripe avocados. In search of ripe avocados, do not choose them based on color. The best way to determine if it is ripe pressure test. Ripe avocados that have firm flesh, but will give slightly when squeezed. Unripe avocados are hard and not given. You should be able to notice the difference. It may take a little practice, however. If you are unsure, ask for help. A ripe avocado should slice like butter.
1 green pepper large diced
2 ears of corn roasted (instructions below)
Half red onion slices
A healthy Bunch cilantro, chopped cool
1 / 2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Dressing
INSTRUCTIONS

Step 2 – While corn is soaking, prepare the chicken cutlets. Lightly coat the chicken with olive oil and sprinkle some Southwestern spice rub on both sides. Rub spices on the chicken. Refrigerate and let marinate chicken, while corn wet.
Step 3 – After making the Soak corn, Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the corn directly on oven rack and roast for about 30 minutes or until the corn is relatively smooth. Remove from oven and cool the corn.

Step 5 – While the chicken and corn is cooling, add the remaining ingredients In a large bowl.

Step 7 – Cut the chicken into thin strips.
Step 8 – Add the corn and chicken in the container with the remaining ingredients.
Step 9 – Add dressing and toss salad. The amount of dressing you add is really up to you. It depends on your personal preferences. I would add about 1 / 4 cup.
