KAT'S SOUTHWEST CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Combine all chicken salad ingredients in bowl and mix well. This is a very hot and spicy recipe, but you can reduce the chipotle and jalapeno pepper if you wish. (The pickled jalapeno gives the chicken salad a little of the tartness that we expect with dill pickles in a traditional chicken salad.)
• 2. Once mixed, sprinkle garlic powder on the bread or rolls, spray with cooking spray and then toast under the broiler.
• 3. Spread chicken salad mixture on the toasted bread, and choose a garnish, if you wish. Try pineapple or peach slices (even better if it's grilled.) The sweetness of the fruit will complement and tame the heat from the peppers. Avocado is also a tasty garnish.
