- Mix the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped celery, chopped cucumbers, red onion, jalapeños, and fresh cilantro. Toss everything together to mix evenly.
- Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, ranch seasoning, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Salad and Dressing: Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture, then toss until everything is evenly coated.
- Chill: Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to chill. This step enhances the flavors and makes the salad even more refreshing.
- Serve: Serve the Spicy Jalapeño Ranch Chicken Salad on its own, on top of a bed of greens, or in a wrap for an extra satisfying meal!
💡 Tip: Add some crumbled bacon or shredded cheese for an extra indulgent touch. You can also substitute Greek yogurt with sour cream for a richer texture.
