Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (shredded or diced) Cooked chicken breast
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise (sugar-free)
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 2 stalks (diced) Celery
- 2 stalks (thinly sliced) Green onion
- 0.5 cup (diced) Red bell pepper
- 1 (ripe, diced) Avocado
- 2 teaspoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions
Start by preparing your ingredients: dice the cooked chicken breast, celery, red bell pepper, and avocado. Thinly slice the green onions and chop the cilantro.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lime juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir until well mixed to create the spicy dressing.
Add the diced chicken, celery, red bell pepper, and green onions to the bowl with the dressing. Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the spicy dressing.
Carefully fold in the diced avocado to avoid mashing it, ensuring it is well distributed throughout the salad.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lime juice if needed.
Garnish with chopped cilantro on top for added flavor and color.
Serve immediately on its own, in lettuce wraps, or with cucumber slices for a low-carb option. Enjoy your Keto Spicy Chicken Salad!
