~ BLACKENED CHICKEN / SOUTHWESTERN SALAD ~
This salad takes a little prep time, but is so worth it. This is my version of a salad I had at a restaurant we frequent often. I was so happy with it, that I wanted to see how close I could come to the same salad, and I was spot on. DELICIOUS! If you like salads and blackened chicken, you will love this salad. So good!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop onion and set aside. Pour vegetable oil into a skillet and put on medium heat. Pour chili powder onto a paper plate.
- 2. Rinse and cut any fatty pieces off the chicken breasts. Dredge chicken breasts through chili powder, and coat completely. Place coated chicken breasts into the skillet. Cook for 7 minutes on each side.
- 3. After 'blackening' chicken breasts, place into a Pyrex dish and sprinkle onions over. Pour 2 cans of Rotelle over chicken and onions, including the juice. Bake for 30 minutes. Place cooked chicken over salad, sprinkle with shredded cheese, and add Rotelle from baking dish on top of cheese. I make garlic bread to go with this.
- 4. You can increase this as much as you like. If I'm making more then 2-4 chicken breasts, I usually add 1 onion and 2 cans of Rotelle to every 2 chicken breasts I am serving.
Tips:
- Use high-quality, fresh ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a good quality blackened seasoning. This will give your chicken a delicious smoky flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your own taste.
- Make sure to chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
Conclusion:
Blackened chicken salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its smoky flavor and refreshing ingredients, blackened chicken salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
