Santa Fe Salad with Cilantro-Lime-Peanut Vinaigrette Recipe

To make the vinaigrette, mix the first eight ingredients in a food processor. Then slowly add olive oil to the mixture, and blend until smooth. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste.

To prepare salad, marinate chicken for about 1 hour in teriyaki marinade in a gallon-size plastic bag or bowl. Once it is ready, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for about 7 to 10 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear. Remove and let cool, then slice into thin strips.

While chicken is cooking, wash and dry the lettuce, then cut into bite-sized pieces. Mix in cilantro, corn, beans, and tomatoes.

Divide the mixture between the four plates, and top each salad with chicken, cheese, then tortilla strips. Dress with vinaigrette, and finish with freshly ground black pepper.
