Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Arrange tortillas on baking sheet; spray tortillas with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt. Bake until golden, about 10 minutes.
- Arrange tortillas in bottom and up sides of 4 salad bowls. Place 1/4 of lettuce, chicken, tomatoes and cheese in each bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, salsa, cumin and pepper sauce. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons dressing over each salad.
Notes- This recipe is well-spiced but if you really want to turn up the heat, add a few dashes of hot pepper sauce.
Chef Tips- We renovated Chicken Taco Salad by:
- Baking the tortillas instead of using fried shells.
- Using fat-free sour cream instead of the full-fat variety.
- Substituting reduced-fat shredded cheese for regular.
