Avocado Lime Chicken Salad

This Avocado Lime Chicken Salad takes a twist on a traditional chicken salad, and we love it! The avocado adds a nice creamy texture, and you can’t go wrong with a lime-cilantro flavor. This salad is so tasty, and you can do a lot with it. Serve it alone, in a wrap, on bread, or in countless other ways. This recipe makes a great side, main dish, or a nice snack during the day.

Avocado Lime Chicken Salad

Servings: 4 | Time: 15 minutes | Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (250 g) cooked shredded chicken
  • 2 avocados
  • 1/4 cup (18 g) thinly sliced green onions
  • 2 Tbsp. (30 ml) fresh lime juice, separated
  • 2 Tbsp. (30 ml) mayonnaise
  • 2 drops lime essential oil
  • 3 drops cilantro essential oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Set the chicken aside in a medium bowl.
  2. Dice the avocados, and gently combine with 1 Tbsp. (15 ml) lime juice. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, combine remaining lime juice with mayo, lime essential oil, and cilantro essential oil to form a dressing.
  4. Combine the dressing with the shredded chicken, and stir to coat entirely.
  5. Gently combine the chicken with the avocados and sliced green onions.
  6. Serve immediately, or chill until ready to serve.

If you prefer more sauce on your salad, you can always add more mayonnaise and lime juice to make it a little creamier.
