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
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
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 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
1 (2.8 ounce) can French fried onions
½ cup ranch dressing
½ cup barbecue sauce
Directions
Preheat the grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
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.
In a large bowl, mix lettuces, tomato, cilantro, corn, and black beans. Top with grilled chicken slices and French fried onions.
In a small bowl, mix ranch dressing and barbecue sauce together. Serve on the side as a dipping sauce or toss with the salad to coat.
