4 sprays olive oil cooking spray
8 medium corn tortilla, cut into 4 wedges each
1/2 tsp table salt
4 cup romaine lettuce, shredded
1 pound chicken breast, cooked, skinless, shredded
1 cup tomato(es), diced
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican cheese
1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
1/4 cup salsa
1/2 tsp ground cumin, or Adobo seasoning
1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce
- Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large
baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Arrange tortillas on baking sheet; spray
tortillas with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt. Bake until
golden, about 10 minutes.
- Arrange tortillas in bottom and up sides
of 4 salad bowls. Place 1/4 of lettuce, chicken, tomatoes and cheese
in each bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together sour
cream, salsa, cumin and pepper sauce. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons
dressing over each salad.
We renovated Chicken Taco Salad by:
- Baking the tortillas instead of using fried shells.
- Using fat-free sour cream instead of the full-fat variety.
- Substituting reduced-fat shredded cheese for regular.
