Southwest BBQ Chicken x 2

SW BBQ Chix Salad


SW BBQ Chix Corn Tortilla Tacos

It is true, I don't care for leftovers.  And I am not a huge fan of chicken.  But this quick and easy 1 prep provides 2 meals.  The dry rub and grilling gives great flavor to the chicken, and the fresh ingredients give me evidence that summer is in full swing.

Dry Rub
Cumin
Dry mustard
Paprika
Celery Salt
Salt and pepper

Coat chicken of choice with rub and leave to flavor while preparing rest of meal.

Corn, Mango, Avocado Salsa
Rub corn cobs with olive oil, salt, and pepper.  Set aside. 

Fine chop mango, red onion, cilantro, and radish; squeeze a lime over all and mix.  Add salt and pepper.

Miscellaneous
Clean and chop a good bit of lettuce.  Grate cheese of choice.  Lightly oil several corn tortillas.

Grill Time
Bring chicken, corn, and tortillas to prepped grill.  Grill chicken to preferred temp, grill corn until grill marks appear, then quickly warm tortillas.

Cut corn kernels into salsa. 

Assemble salad or tacos.  For a quick and light salad dressing combine equal parts prepared tomato salsa with balsamic or red wine vinegar.  For salad, slice corn tortillas into strips.
