Awesome salad! I add avocado and it's great. I also do 2/3 ranch and 1/3 bbq sauce - for us, it's perfect!

I didn't like this at all. I must have done something wrong. It even looked unappealing since the dressing was brown.

I used a tablespoon of dry taco seasoning (low salt version) mixed in with the Ranch dressing instead of the barbecue sauce. The whole family loved this dish. I will make it again.

Excellent recipe for a hot day! The chicken can be grilled outside while the house stays cool!

Fabulous. I made this 3 times last month, until I got sick of the repetition. And as I sit here, I wish I had some in front of me! I do like to thin the dressing with water - the combo of bbq sauce and ranch dressing is rather thick.

Every member of my family loved this (8, 5 and 4 yr old and my hubby). It was easy, light, fast and really good...and filling. I served it with homemade corn bread. The only changes I made were to eliminate cilantro and add chopped red bell pepper. I also used Foster Farms grilled chicken pieces from the deli section (I didn't have any chicken defrosted.) I didn't use the dressing to toss the salad, only because I knew my kids would prefer a different dressing, so I served them, then tossed the salad for the adults. Really good!

This salad is amazing...I crave it! The only thing I leave out is the cilanto as we don't care for it. My husband said this was restaurant food! The dressing is sooo good, it sounds strange but don't let it fool you. Use a good quality Ranch and a good BBQ sauce. I'm all for generics, but in this case, I think brand name makes a difference.

This recipe was fantastic! First I used 2 packages of grilled chicken that you can get in the deli area. Also I did not use cilantro (personal preference) as well I did not mix the ranch and BBQ sauce I drizzled them both on top of each salad. The second time I made this I mixed the the ranch &bbq sauce into the salad and nliked it better that way. Tasted like a salad that they used to serve at Mimi's Cafe.

this wasy really good, made it for a luncheon, and everyone wanted the recipe. I used green onions, and instead of french fried onions, crumbled tortilla chips on top. Also I halved the cilantro, and it was pleanty.

This is very good. I used BBQ chicken breasts from the day before and low-cal ranch. It was delicious - the cilantro really adds a nice kick. Flavorful and filling!

Great recipe! Wonderful summer salad!! I dont use the ff onion rings but instead buy flour tortillas from the store and spray them with pam and salt them and then stick them on a pan under the broiler for 5 minutes. Once lightly brown and crunchy looking I cut them with a pizza cutter into strips and place them on top of the salad. Very "professional" looking! Tastes great w/ out too much onion.

Totally awesome. I too love these salads from popular restaurants, but never attempted them at home. As other reviewers mentioned, I cut the dressing, 2/3 cup ranch 1/3 cup BBQ. I left out the french fried onions and added red onion. Delicious!

This salad tasted decent, but the dressing was a weird pink color. If I make it again, I think I'll just drizzle the ranch over the salad, then a little bit of barbecue sauce.
