Instructions
- Make your Chicken Taco: Dissolve taco seasoning in 2/3 cup water. Set aside. Heat oil in a pan. Sauté chopped garlic and onion until translucent. Add ground chicken and cook until brown. Pour in taco seasoning in water. Bring to a boil and simmer until cooked and sauce has thickened.
- Layer lettuce on your serving plate and then assemble all the other ingredients on top: cherry tomatoes, kidney beans, corn kernels, cheddar cheese, and avocado. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro on top.
- You can serve the ranch dressing drizzled on top of the salad or on the side.
