Prepare Ingredients: Ensure your cooked chicken is shredded or cut into bite-sized pieces. Gently dice the ripe avocado. Finely mince the red onion and fresh cilantro. Have your lime juice, olive oil, and seasonings ready.
Combine Salad Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the prepared chicken, diced avocado, minced red onion, and minced cilantro.
Dress and Season: Pour the fresh lime juice and extra-virgin olive oil over the ingredients in the bowl. Sprinkle with the ground cumin, salt, and freshly ground black pepper according to your preference.
Mix Gently: Using a rubber spatula or large spoon, carefully fold and toss the salad ingredients. Mix just until everything is evenly coated with the dressing and seasonings. Be gentle during mixing to avoid mashing the avocado chunks excessively; you want to maintain some texture.
Serve: Serve the Creamy Lime Chicken and Avocado Salad immediately for the best texture and color. Excellent served in lettuce cups, with vegetable sticks, or on its own.
