Add all of the ingredients for the dressing to a small blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth. If you don’t have a small blender, you can mix everything together in a small bowl. Just be sure to finely chop the chipotle chilies first. Refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use.
If you’re cooking the chicken ahead of time, choose your favorite method for preparing the chicken. See blog post for chicken recipe suggestions, or use store-bought pre-cooked chicken such as rotisserie chicken.
Add all of the ingredients for the salad to a large serving bowl. Add in your desired amount of dressing and toss until everything is well coated in dressing. Serve salad in big bowls and enjoy! You can toss in some crushed tortilla chips and/or serve with a dollop of sour cream on top.
Store any leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Salads are best when eaten fresh, but you can stretch leftovers until the next day if you're okay with leftovers.
