This low-calorie Chicken and Apple Salad puts a zesty spin on an old childhood favorite. Instead of serving this main-dish salad over greens, fold it into whole-wheat wraps with a few spinach leaves. Serve the wrap with baked potato chips or tortilla chips on the side. Ingredients:
1 3 1/2-lb. rotisserie chicken |
2 medium granny smith apples, cored, cut into 1/4-inch dice |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion |
1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
salt |
8 cups mixed salad greens |
Directions:
1. Remove meat from chicken and dice, discarding skin and bones (you should have about 4 cups of meat).
2. Toss apples with 1 Tbsp. lime juice in a large bowl. Add chicken and red onion. In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, cilantro, red pepper, 1/2 tsp. salt and remaining 1 Tbsp. lime juice. Stir dressing into chicken mixture to coat. Season with salt.
3. Arrange greens on four plates. Top with chicken salad and serve.
