Step 3
In a large bowl toss red pepper, black beans, onion, greens, cilantro and cooled tortilla strips until evenly mixed.

For Dressing: Whisk olive oil, lime juice, grated lime peel, garlic, chili powder, cumin and salt.

To assemble salad: Toss greens mixture with dressing until evenly coated. Cut avocado into thin slices and toss with lime juice. For each portion, place one-quarter of the greens mixture on each of the four plates. Top with one-quarter of the chicken slices, one-quarter of the chopped tomato and one-quarter of the avocado slices. If desired, serve with lime wedges.
