## Instruction
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### For the Marinade
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Start by adding the peppers, lime juice, avocado oil, water, sea salt, and garlic to a large container or blender—immersion blend for about a minute till creamy and bright orange.
|
|||
|
- Use a fork to poke some holes in the chicken so the marinade can penetrate better.
|
|||
|
- Add the chicken to a bowl and pour the marinade over it.
|
|||
|
- Cover and let marinate in the fridge for at least an hour but up to overnight.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### For the Grill
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Start by oiling your grill and preheating it to high.
|
|||
|
- Shuck your corn and drizzle with the avocado oil.
|
|||
|
- Add the corn and chicken to the grill and cover.
|
|||
|
- Cook the chicken for about 8 minutes on 1 side, flip, and cook for another 6 minutes on the other.
|
|||
|
- Rotate the corn every few minutes while the chicken is cooking. You want the corn to be nicely charred and a little bit darker yellow.
|
|||
|
- The chicken should have a good char and be 165 internal temp.
|
|||
|
- Remove the chicken and corn from the grill and let the chicken rest and the corn cool while you prep your salad.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### For the Salad
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Core and dice your bell peppers and add them to a large bowl.
|
|||
|
- Mince your cilantro and add it to the bowl.
|
|||
|
- Mince your red onion and add it to the bowl.
|
|||
|
- Rinse and drain your chickpeas and butter beans and add them to the bowl.
|
|||
|
- Slice your cherry tomatoes in half and add them.
|
|||
|
- Cube your avocados and add them
|
|||
|
- Chop your cooled chicken and add it.
|
|||
|
- Slice the corn off of the cobb and add it to the bowl.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Make the Dressing
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- In a small container mix the avocado oil, lime juice, vinegar, chipotle powder, cumin, sea salt, and mayonnaise. I like the use a milk frother to mix everything till it’s nice and creamy.
|
|||
|
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together. I think this salad is best when you let it marinate for at least an hour.
