Chicken Green Chilie Salad

This is my best attempt at Bajio's Chicken Green Chilie Salad, which I love, but I get ticked off every time I go there and they raise the price another buck. I'm so cheap. So I had an idea to try and see if I could duplicate the flavor and wa la, I think I've got it.

Saute:
1/2 to 1 full diced onion (depends how much you like onions--I love em in meals)
1/2 cube butter
1 can diced green chilies

Add about 1/2 c. brown sugar--you want the mixture to look light brown

Add 2 large cooked chicken breasts cut up or shredded.

You can serve this:
-as a salad with tortilla chips
-on tortillas
-with refried or black beans
-with spanish rice
-topped with sour cream, guacamole, cheese, and salsa.
-the possibilities are endless.

Are you salivating yet?
