FIESTA CHICKEN TACO SALAD

I got this from one of those recipe books at the counter in the grocery store. It is a simple one to prepare as you use a prepared package of frozen chicken. Or you may use any leftover chicken strips you have from another meal. In fact, you can plan to have them leftover. I'm all for doing things easily.
