CHICKEN BACON RANCH SALAD



Chicken Bacon Ranch Salad image

I always seem to have leftover cooked chicken. This simple, tasty salad is a great use of your leftover chicken, either white meat, dark meat, or a combination! Romaine lettuce, cooked chicken, avocado, and cherry tomatoes combine with ranch dressing, and everything is topped off with crunchy bacon. Use purchased ranch salad dressing, or stir up one of the buttermilk dressing recipes on the site. Enjoy for a hearty lunch with some crackers, or for dinner, with a crusty bread. This recipe is proportioned for one person, but it's easy to double or triple for your needs.

  • Cook the chicken on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until it is cooked through. You can check the chicken by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks.
  • Stir the shredded chicken into the bacon ranch sauce.
  • Serve the chicken over rice, pasta, or vegetables.
