Description
Enjoy the flavors of the Southwest with this 20-minute main-dish salad of shredded chicken, corn, and black beans in a creamy, gently spicy barbecue sauce. To shred the chicken quickly, pull the meat from the bones while the rotisserie chicken is still warm, rather than waiting until it’s chilled. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Danielle Moore.
