Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. TIP: Thoroughly pat lettuce dry before assembling salad.
• Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Thinly slice crosswise into strips and place in a large microwave-safe bowl. Add a drizzle of oil, half the Fajita Spice Blend (all for 4 servings), salt, and pepper; stir to combine.
• Cover with plastic wrap; microwave until chicken is warmed through, 90 seconds.
• Meanwhile, trim and discard root end from lettuce; roughly chop. Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces.
• Place lettuce, tomato, and chicken in a second large bowl; crush half the tortilla chips over top. Drizzle with as much dressing as you like; toss to combine.
• Divide salad between shallow bowls and serve with remaining tortilla chips on the side.
