Barbecue Chicken Chopped Salad

1/2 head romaine lettuce
1/2 head iceburg lettuce
cilantro (to taste)
Fresh basil (2-3 leaves, but I've also made it without and it's good)
1 cup white corn
1 cup black beans
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Tortilla strips
Chopped tomatoes (optional)
Cooked chopped chicken
Sweet & spicy BBQ sauce
Ranch dressing

Prepare the chicken by covering it with BBQ sauce after it is cooked and chopped, and let it chill in the refrigerator. Chop the lettuces into strips and combine with chopped cilantro and basil. Stir in corn, beans, and cheese. Just before serving, stir in about 1 cup of tortilla strips and toss with a small amount of ranch dressing. Top the salad with the BBQ chicken and drizzle the salad with a little extra BBQ sauce.
