Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients for the Avocado Chicken Salad. Dice the ripe avocados, halve the cherry tomatoes, finely chop the red onion, and roughly chop the fresh cilantro. Set aside your prepped ingredients.
  2. If your cooked chicken is not pre-shredded, take the time to shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced avocado, chopped red onion, halved cherry tomatoes, and cilantro. Use a spatula to gently mix the ingredients together.
  4. Drizzle freshly squeezed lime juice over the mixture, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
  5. Take a moment to taste your salad and make any necessary adjustments to the seasoning. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes before serving.
