I saw this on the Today Show....Salad & Spicy Salsa Dressing

Mexican chicken salad with spicy salsa dressing

"The 5-Factor Diet" by Harley Pasternak

Servings: 2

INGREDIENTS

• 6 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast

• 1 cup nonfat Sour cream

• 1 cup salsa

• 1 small head iceberg lettuce, coarsely shopped

• 1 1/2 cups canned corn, drained

• 1 teaspoon fajita seasoning mix

• 1 pinch cumin

• Salt and cracked black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Combine the fajita seasoning mix, cumin, salt and pepper. Coat the chicken breast with the seasoning mixture. Microwave the chicken for 6 minutes. Remove from the microwave and set aside to cool slightly.

2. In a blender, combine the sour cream and salsa. Pulse until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, add a little water.

To serve: Cut the chicken breast into 1⁄2-inch pieces and toss it with the lettuce, corn, and salsa dressing. Serve immediately.

I SAW THIS ON THE TODAY SHOW AND THOUGHT THAT THE DRESSING MADE OF SOUR CREAM AND SALSA WAS A GREAT OPTION FOR A HEALTHY SALAD DRESSING.  DRESSINGS ARE THE KILLER TO A HEALTHY SALAD! HOPE YOU ENJOY! ALSO, I THINK I WILL PASS ON THE MICROWAVING OF CHICKEN...SORRY BUT THAT SOUNDS A LITTLE BIT WEIRD. I WILL STICK TO BAKING OR GRILLING CHICKEN!  JULIE
