Cilantro-Lime Dressing image

After having a delicious TGI Friday's grilled chicken salad, I was determined to figure out the cilantro-lime salad dressing served with it. This is what I came up with. Delicious for a quick summery dinner. Grilled boneless chicken breasts served over a hearty green salad, and this dressing, voila!

This dressing is a bit too thick for my taste. I would thin it out with a little bit of water or vinegar next time.
