Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
  • Slice 2 Mini flour tortillas into thin strips and then spray 6 pumps Spray oil. Put into the oven for 3-4 minutes, until crispy.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon Olive oil in a large frying pan. Add 1 Chicken breast and cook for 5-6 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Keeping on a low heat, stir in the 8 tablespoon Barbecue sauce and then take off the heat.
  • Add 1 Romaine lettuce and 2 handfuls Lettuce leaves to a large serving bowl and squeeze juice of 1 Lime over it. Top with 0.5 Avocado, 8 Cherry tomatoes, 80 g Sweetcorn and 2 Carrot. Top with the BBQ chicken.
  • Add 30 g Cheddar cheese and the crispy tortilla strips.
  • Drizzle with 4 tablespoon Ranch dressing and serve.

Notes

  • You can use any good quality store bought BBQ sauce in this salad, however it really is worth going to the effort of making your own.
  • Add an extra bit of flavour by grilling corn on the cob and then slicing the corn off, rather than using a tin of corn.
  • If you don't want to go to the effort of baking tortilla strips, then you can just buy store bought tortilla chips and crush them on top.
  • You could also swap the tortillas for croutons instead.
