Chicken Fiesta Salad

This was really quick and easy. I cut up the chicken and then rubbed the fajita seasoning on it and then stir fried it. I also was out of black beans so I used kidney beans. I used romaine lettuce as well. Mexican style corn??? I just used a standard 14.5 oz can of whole kernal.

Chicken Fiesta Salad

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 (1.27 ounce) packet dry fajita seasoning, divided
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (11 ounce) can Mexican-style corn
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1 (10 ounce) package mixed salad greens
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tomato, cut into wedges

DIRECTIONS

  1. Rub chicken evenly with 1/2 the fajita seasoning. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken 8 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear; set aside.
  2. In a large saucepan, mix beans, corn, salsa and other 1/2 of fajita seasoning. Heat over medium heat until warm.
  3. Prepare the salad by tossing the greens, onion and tomato. Top salad with chicken and dress with the bean and corn mixture.
