Chicken and Avacado Salad

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded into large pieces
2 medium avocados, diced
1 T + 1 T fresh squeezed lime juice
salt, to taste
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
2 T mayo
  • Shred the chicken apart until you have 2 cups of chicken shredded into fairly large chunks.
  • Dice the avocados into medium-sized pieces
  • Mix with 1 T of the lime juice, and season avocado with salt to taste. 
  • Finely chop the cilantro. 
  • Mix mayo and 1 T lime juice to make the dressing.
  • Put the chicken into a bowl large enough to hold all the salad ingredients. 
  • Add the dressing and toss until all the chicken is coated. 
  • Add the avocado and any lime juice in the bottom of the bowl and gently combine with the chicken. 
  • Add the chopped cilantro and gently mix into the salad, just until it is barely combined.
  • Serve right away or chill for a while before serving. 
  • This could also be served inside pita bread or croissant, or inside crisp lettuce cups.
