Barbequed Chicken Salad with Toasted Lavash Strips, Avocado, Roasted Corn and Black Beans

This is an easy dish to prepare and makes a nice main dish salad meal. The key is using both the BBQ sauce and the Ranch dressing. The Ranch to lightly coat the greens and the BBQ sauce to coat the chicken. The roasted Lavash strips add crunch and a textural component to offset the soft/delicate butter lettuce. I serve the BBQ sauce seperately at the table so people can add as much or as little as they like. Crumbled blue cheese can also be served seperately at the table. The grilled chicken and BBQ sauce make a red wine appropriate even with the poultry. A fruiity Zinfandel always works with a BBQ'd dish. I opted for a 2008 Gustafson Family Vineyards Estate Mountain Cuvee--83% Zinfandel, 9% Petite Sirah and 8% Syrah.
