Preparation

  1. In small bowl, mix strawberries, onion and lime juice. Let stand, uncovered, while cooking the chicken.
  2. Meanwhile, in 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add chicken, salt and pepper; cook 4 to 6 minutes without moving. Turn chicken, and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer, until chicken is browned and no longer pink in center.
  3. Add orange juice to skillet, and heat to boiling; reduce heat, and cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until thickened.
  4. Divide greens among warm tortilla bowls; top with chicken and any remaining cooking liquid from pan. Top evenly with strawberry salsa and cheese.

Expert Tips

  • For the prettiest presentation, pull off any long stems on the baby greens before adding to the tortilla bowls.
  • To reduce the sting of raw onions, place in fine-mesh strainer, and rinse under cold water for 30 seconds. Pat dry before using.
  • Baby spinach leaves can be used in place of the mixed baby greens.
