To make the vinaigrette, add the limes, tequila, garlic, honey, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper to a medium sized bowl. Slowly whisk in the oil until it becomes thickened. Set aside.For the salad, add the cooked pasta, chicken, cheese, cilantro and the vegetables to a large bowl and mix to combine evenly.Add desired amount of dressing to salad. I used about half of the dressing but add more if you prefer.Enjoy!
