BBQ Lime Chicken Salad

For the chicken:
In a medium size bowl, add the juice from the lime and all of the other chicken marinade ingredients (except for the chicken). Whisk the marinade ingredients together.

Cut the chicken breasts in half. Then, just for the thickest half of the breasts, slice them in half lengthwise (as though you were going to butterfly the chicken, only cut it all the way through).

Put the six pieces of chicken in the marinade. Marinate the chicken for about 20 minutes.

While the chicken is marinating, heat up the barbeque grill (or skillet if you prefer). Grill the chicken for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Discard the leftover marinade.

Remove the grilled chicken from the grill, put on a plate and cover it with foil. Let it rest while you’re making the salad.

For the salad:
Chop the lettuce and add it to each serving bowl or plate. Add the spinach and red cabbage. Then add the carrots, corn, red bell pepper, and onions.

Slice the chicken on the diagonal so that the pieces are about ½ thick. Lay the chicken on top of the salad ingredients and serve with your favorite dressing.

The recipe for this lime chicken is adapted from the delicious Santa Fe Chicken Pizza at The California Pizza Kitchen.
