For an extra layer of flavor, try marinating the chicken in the limeade mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
If you don't have a blender, you can whisk the dressing ingredients together vigorously, though the texture may not be as smooth.
Feel free to substitute other berries, such as blueberries or raspberries, based on your preference and what's in season.
Toasted pecans can add a nice depth of flavor. Toast them lightly in a dry skillet before adding them to the salad.
