8 oz cooked chicken breast or turkey breast, cubed
1 red bell pepper, cored and seeded, cut into quarters
4 cups salad greens (optional)
Salt & pepper, to taste
1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
½ tsp crushed dried tarragon or dried thyme leaves
Instructions

In large bowl, toss together pepper, chicken and jicama. In a small bowl, stir mayonnaise, lime juice, tarragon, salt and pepper together until blended. Pour over chicken mixture and toss to coat.
Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
Serve chicken salad over bed of salad greens, if desired.
