For the grill:
450 g | Chicken breasts |
½ cup | Parsley leaves |
½ cup | Coriander leaves |
1 Tbsp | chimichurri sauce |
2 | fresh sweet corn, husked |
1 drizzle | cooking spray, for grilling |
For the salad + toppings:
1 bag | Taylor Farms Southwest Chopped Salad kits |
1 | Avocado, pitted and thinly sliced |
2 | Tomatoes, chopped |
1 | Lime, cut into 6 wedges |
Directions
For the grill:
- Marinate chicken breast in in 3/4 cup of chimichurri sauce for 1 hour or overnight if possible.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Spray the corn with cooking spray.
- Place the marinated chicken breast and corn directly on the grill. Flip the corn every two minutes and remove when the corn has turned a bright yellow and has beautiful grill marks. Flip the chicken after 5 minutes and grill on the other side until chicken has fully cooked through.
- To serve, cut the corn off the cob and slice the grilled chimichurri chicken into thin slices.
To assemble:
- In a large salad bowl, add the entire contents of the Taylor Farms Southwest Chopped Salad Kit except for the creamy coriander dressing. Toss together and divide into 3 separate salad bowls.
- Add the sliced grilled chicken breast, grilled corn, avocado slices and chopped tomatoes to each bowl. Brush chicken with remaining chimichurri sauce and freshly squeezed lime juice.
- Top salads with creamy cilantro dressing and enjoy!
*Store-bought chimichurri sauce can be used as well.
