Forget every boring chicken salad you’ve ever eaten because this Chipotle Chicken Salad sets the flavor bar, bringing bold flavors thanks to Chipotle and Roasted Garlic Mayo.
½cupChipotle and Roasted Garlic Mayo (see recipe above)
¼cupred onionfinely diced
¼cupbell pepperfinely diced
1jalapenofinely minced
12large black olivesdiced
½teaspoonfreshly-squeezed lime juice
Salt and pepper, to taste
1headIceberg lettuce
Instructions
Add all ingredients to a bowl (except for the lettuce, of course) and stir until combined.
Remove the core from the Iceberg lettuce by cutting around it with a paring knife. Carefully peel off the outer layers of lettuce, leaving them as intact as possible. It’s okay if you get a few rips here and there as I recommend at least 2 lettuce layers for a stable lettuce wrap you can pick up and eat.
Optional: Take your paring knife and remove a little more from each lettuce leaf where the core was - this is a personal preference for me to remove this slightly tougher section.
Take two lettuce leaves and stack them strategically so that they can be wrapped around the filling.
Add two generous spoonfuls of Chipotle Chicken Salad, spreading evenly across the lettuce leaves.
Wrap the lettuce around the filling and prepare yourself to take a big bite.
