Grilled Chicken And Charred Corn Salad Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN AND CHARRED CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Sprinkle chicken breast with salt and pepper. Brush corn and asparagus with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Place chicken and corn on the grill; close the lid. Grill, turning chicken once and corn as needed, until chicken is no longer pink and corn is charred, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Add asparagus and grill, turning often, for 6 minutes.
• Slice chicken diagonally. Cut corn from cobs; cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces.
• Whisk vinegar, garlic, mustard, paprika, and remaining olive oil together. Season dressing with salt and pepper.
• Toss chicken, corn, asparagus, tomatoes, lettuce, and green onion together in a large bowl with the dressing.

GRIDDLED CHICKEN & CORN ON THE COB SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthways so you are left with 8 chicken strips. Mix the garlic, paprika, lemon juice and 1 tbsp oil with some seasoning and toss with the chicken. Leave to marinate for at least 15 mins.
• Heat a griddle pan and brush with half the remaining oil and cook the chicken for 3-4 mins each side until cooked through. Brush over the remaining oil and griddle the corn cobs, turning to cook evenly, for about 5 mins or until lightly charred. Remove and cut off the kernels.
• Mix the lettuce and cucumber, top with the corn and chicken, and drizzle over your choice of dressing.

GRILLED CHICKEN AND SWEET CORN ZOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to about 400 degrees F and clean the grates or preheat a large grill pan over medium-high heat.
• While the grill or grill pan preheats, place 1 of the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pound out to about 1/2 inch thick with a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat tenderizer. Remove and place on a rimmed baking sheet and repeat with the remaining chicken breast. Drizzle both sides of the chicken with grapeseed oil and liberally season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the chicken until you see grill marks and the chicken bounces back when you press on it, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Grill the corn at the same time, turning occasionally, until charred and bright yellow, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the zoodles with the tomatoes, olives and chopped basil in a large bowl. Once the corn is cool enough to handle, cut off the kernels and add them to the bowl.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, Dijon, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pour over the salad and toss. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt or pepper, if needed.
• Thinly slice the chicken. Using tongs, pile the zoodle salad into a large shallow serving bowl, leaving behind any liquid in the bowl. Dollop with spoonfuls of ricotta, then top with the sliced chicken and a few basil leaves. Serve warm or at room temperature.
