CHICKEN TACO SLAW SALAD
This was one of my entries for RSC#13. The delicious homemade French-Salsa dressing makes this taco chicken salad stand out from all the rest. This main dish salad could be made earlier in the day and chilled. Or, if you prefer your chicken warmed, saute the chicken just before you are ready to eat. It takes very little time to make this satisfying meal for your family. Serving size will vary depending on your appetites. It will make approximately 2 cups of salad dressing so you may have some left over depending on how much dressing your guests like on their salad.

Steps:
- Combine all of the Sweet and Spicy dressing ingredients into a big bowl. Mix with a whisk. Taste and season accordingly. Set aside. Assemble the salad.

- You can use any type of cooked chicken you like in this salad. Rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken, or boiled chicken all work well.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to this salad, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini.
- If you're looking for a lighter dressing, you can use a vinaigrette or yogurt-based dressing instead of mayonnaise.
