Low-Carb Chicken and Avocado Salad with Lime and Cilantro
This Low-Carb Chicken and Avocado Salad with Lime and Cilantro has a perfect combination of flavors.

Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded into large pieces
- 2 medium avocados, diced
- 2 T fresh squeezed lime juice
- salt, to taste
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
- 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 T mayo of your choice
Directions
- Shred the chicken apart until you have 2 cups of chicken shredded into fairly large chunks.
- Dice the avocados into medium-sized pieces, mix with 1 T of the lime juice, and season avocado with salt to taste.
- Thinly slice the green onion and finely chop the cilantro.
- Mix mayo and 1 T lime juice to make the dressing
- Put the chicken into a bowl large enough to hold all the salad ingredients.
- Add the sliced green onions and dressing and toss until all the chicken is coated with dressing.
- Add the avocado and any lime juice in the bottom of the bowl and gently combine with the chicken.
- Then add the chopped cilantro and gently mix into the salad, just until it is barely combined.
- Serve right away or chill for a while before serving.
- This could be served inside pita bread or sandwich bread, or inside crisp lettuce cups, but we just ate it as a salad.
- I would imagine this would be fine in the fridge overnight but I didn't have any left over when I made it!
