Guacamole Crunch Salad with Crisp Chicken
A quick salad built on the kit's leafy base and ranch-spiced broccoli, topped with a warm chicken breast and avocado for protein and fat. The salsa picante dressing ties everything together, so you're mostly assembling rather than cooking.

To buy
- 2 breasts, about 6 ounces each chicken breast
- 1 ripe avocado
From your shelf
- 1 guacamole crunch chopped kit
Staples
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pat 2 chicken breasts dry, season with salt and pepper on both sides, then lay them in the hot pan without moving them for 2 minutes.
- Flip the breasts and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes until an instant-read thermometer shows 165°F [74°C] at the thickest part; they should be golden and cooked through.
- While the chicken cooks, empty the guacamole crunch kit into a large bowl and toss to combine the lettuce, broccoli, and any crunchy toppings.
- Halve and pit 1 ripe avocado, then scoop the flesh into thin slices.
- When the chicken is done, let it rest for 2 minutes on a cutting board, then slice into strips.
- Divide the salad between two plates or bowls, arrange the avocado slices and chicken strips on top, then drizzle or toss with the salsa picante dressing from the kit.
Note Swap the avocado for a hard-boiled egg if you prefer. Leftovers keep refrigerated for one day; rewarm the chicken gently or eat it cold. Serve with warm bread or rice on the side to catch the dressing.
