Ingredients
- 250 g chicken breast fillet
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ⅔ cup drained, canned no added salt corn kernels
- ½ baby cos lettuce, leaves separated
- ½ large avocado, cut into 2 wedges
- 100 g grape tomatoes, halved

Dressing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon honey
Method
Step 1
Place chicken breasts on a large plate and rub with oil and paprika to coat.
Step 2
Heat a medium non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add chicken. Cook about 5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, to make dressing, combine all ingredients in small bowl. Season with pepper and whisk well.
Step 4
Thinly slice chicken. Arrange chicken on a platter with corn, lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, cucumber, eggs and onion. Drizzle over dressing to serve.
Tips
- It’s important to cook chicken over a medium heat only to ensure it cooks through to the centre without burning spice coating.
- Canned corn can be replaced with 2 fresh corn cobs. Cook in a lightly oiled non-stick grill pan or on a barbecue grill for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until lightly charred. Cut kernels off the cob and add to salad.
- Pack any leftovers into containers and refrigerate for a lunch on the go the next day.
