This recipe for barbecue chicken salad is very similar to one at a popular restaurant near my house. I loved it there and decided to make it at home. Now it's one of my favorite salads to make!
Ingredients
- 2 skinless , boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 head red leaf lettuce , rinsed and torn
- 1 head green leaf lettuce , rinsed and torn
- 1 fresh tomato , chopped
- 1 bunch cilantro , chopped
- 1 can whole kernel corn , 15.25 ounce
- 1 can black beans , 15 ounce
- 1 can French fried onions , 2.8 ounce
- 0.5 cups ranch dressing
- 0.5 cups barbecue sauce
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

2
Cook chicken on the preheated grill until the juices run clear, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from heat, cool, and slice.
