Healthier Taco Salad
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 1 small jar Kraft sun-dried tomato salad dressing
- salt & pepper
- cayenne pepper
- chili powder
- 4 -5 large basil leaves, left whole
- 4 zucchini, skinned and cut into strips
- 1 (6 ounce) can Rotel Tomatoes
- 1 (8 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 2 large fresh tomatoes, diced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 12 cup hot water
- In a bowl, marinate cubed chicken in vinageriette, salt / pepper, cayenne pepper and chilli powder for 1 hour.
- In a hot skillet, pour chicken marinade and add whole basil leaves.
- While chicken is cooking, in separate bowl, dissolve tomato paste in hot water.
- Add zucchini, beans, Rotel tomatoes, diced tomatoes.
- Add cayenne pepper & chilli powder if you like spicy.
- Once chicken has cooked through, take out of skillet, keep warm & pour off excess liquid but you will be using the same skillet for the veggies.
- Put skillet back on burner & get hot.
- Add veggie mix - stir often.
- I take out when zucchini is soft but if you like it crunchy take out before it becomes translucent.
- To serve - put zucchini mix on plate & top with chicken.
- DH adds Fritos around the edges for more of a taco salad taste.
