Summery Grilled Chicken Avocado Salad with Creamy Guacamole Dressing

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   Pat chicken breasts dry. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add chicken, coat evenly, and marinate for 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator.
2. 2

   Preheat grill to medium-high heat (approx. 400°F / 200°C). Lightly oil grates. Grill chicken for 4-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes, then slice.
3. 3

   While chicken rests, prepare dressing: In a medium bowl, mash avocados until mostly smooth. Stir in 2 tbsp lime juice, cilantro, minced red onion, 1/4 tsp salt, and a pinch of pepper. Gradually add 1-2 tbsp water, stirring until creamy and drizzly.
4. 4

   In a large bowl, combine salad greens, halved cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, corn, and diced cucumber.
5. 5

   Divide salad base among plates. Top with sliced grilled chicken and generously drizzle with creamy guacamole dressing. Serve immediately.
