1
Put the chicken breasts in a bowl and cover with the taco sauce. Marinate the chicken breasts in the taco sauce (in the refrigerator) for at least 2 hours.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken breasts until they are cooked through, about 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.

In a large bowl combine the chopped romaine lettuce, corn, beans, pepper, green onions, and shredded cheese. Toss until evenly distributed.
4
In a medium bowl combine the salsa and ranch dressing.
