Avocado Chicken Salad is a healthy, nutrient-dense alternative to your average chicken salad. It is filled with heart-healthy fat, tons of protein, and tastes absolutely delicious! This chicken salad is perfect for anyone following a Keto or Whole30 diet!
Preheat the oven to 375. In an oven-safe dish, mix chicken, garlic, oil, salt, pepper, and red crushed pepper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the oven. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-size pieces. Once shredded, allow the chicken to cool, about 10 minutes)
Making The Chicken Salad
Prepare the vegetables: Chop the onion, jalapeno, and cilantro.
Place the shredded chicken and remaining ingredients into a large bowl. Mix the remaining ingredients together, using the forks to mash the avocado.
Top the salad with more lime. Taste and adjust the flavor to your liking: adding more lime to make the chicken salad zestier, and more avocado (or coconut cream) to make it creamier.
