Chicken Nugget Taco Salads Recipes

Steps:

• Bake chicken nuggets as directed on package. Pour 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce into large custard cup. Dip nuggets, one at a time, into enchilada sauce; shake off excess. Place coated nuggets back on pan. Bake 2 to 3 minutes longer or until hot.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix remaining enchilada sauce and sour cream with whisk; set aside.
• Divide lettuce among 5 dinner plates. Top with cheese, corn and tomatoes. Top with chicken nuggets. Drizzle with dressing.

Steps:

• Bake chicken nuggets as directed on package. Cover to keep warm. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Heat taco shells and tortillas as directed on box.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix sour cream, taco seasoning mix and enough milk for desired consistency. Set aside.
• Fill each taco shell and tortilla with 2 chicken nuggets, cheese, lettuce and salsa. Drizzle each with sour cream mixture.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Generously sprinkle both sides of the breasts with the taco seasoning. Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken on both sides until deep golden brown on the outside and done in the middle (or to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F), about 4 minutes per side. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• For the dressing: While the chicken is cooking, pour the ranch dressing into a bowl. Add the salsa and cilantro and stir to combine.
• For the salad: Next, place the ears of corn in the skillet you used to cook the chicken and roll them around so that the flavorful oil/butter mixture coats the corn. Grill on a grill pan or cook in a separate skillet until the corn is still crisp but has color on the outside. Slice off the kernels with a sharp knife and set aside. Dice the chicken into cubes.
• On a platter, layer the shredded lettuce, diced chicken, tomatoes, cheese, corn, avocados, green onions, cilantro and crushed chips. Drizzle the dressing all over the top, saving some to serve on the side if you'd like. Serve the salad in individual bowls.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Line a baking sheet with foil. Arrange chicken nuggets on baking sheet and sprinkle with chili powder. Bake until crispy and cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• Combine avocado and lime juice in a small bowl. Warm oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add scallions and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add corn and saute until warmed through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in cilantro and season with salt.
• Divide corn mixture among tortillas, top each with 2 or 4 chicken nuggets and some avocado mixture. Fold over and serve.
