A good salad satisfies all of your senses. The variety of colors and flavors, the fresh smell, distinct crunch, and all the different textures are what make eating a big, nutritious salad so refreshing and enjoyable.

This salad is one that you can actually eat on its own for lunch or dinner, because it is substantial enough to keep you feeling full for hours. This low-carb, keto Chicken Avocado Salad salad is packed with protein, healthy fats and vitamins. It is made with tender chicken, creamy avocados, juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumber, thinly-sliced red onion, fresh cilantro, and simply dressed with lime juice and olive oil.

For the cooked chicken in this recipe you can either:

  1. Use a rotisserie chicken or any leftover chicken that you have on hand
  2. Season two small chicken breasts with salt and pepper and cook them in a bit of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat

For this Chicken Avocado Salad Recipe, I recommend:

  • Citrus Juicer – If you cook with a lot of citrus, a sturdy juicer is a must. This one works for both lemons and limes and will squeeze out every last drop of juice like a pro. Worth every penny.
  • Glass Mixing Bowls – This set is perfect for mixing up and serving salads. I love these bowls because they are super affordable and the quality is excellent.
