High Protein Chicken Street Corn Salad

A vibrant, nutritious salad loaded with shredded chicken, sweet corn, fresh herbs, and creamy avocado, offering a high protein content and bursting with flavor.

  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Shredded chicken (Use rotisserie chicken for convenience)
  • 1 cup Sweet corn (Canned or grilled)
  • 1/2 cup Fresh cilantro (Chopped, can substitute with parsley)
  • 1/2 cup Red onion (Diced, can use green onion for a milder flavor)
  • 1 Avocado (Diced, adds creaminess)
  • 1 Lime (Juiced, for acidity)
  • Salt and pepper (To taste, enhances all flavors)

Instructions

  1. Combine the shredded chicken, sweet corn, chopped cilantro, diced red onion, and diced avocado in a large bowl.
  2. Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Toss all the ingredients until well combined to ensure the flavors meld.
  4. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving for enhanced flavors.

Notes

Always use fresh lime juice for a brighter taste; the bottled kind can be too sour. For added flavor, consider grilling the corn before adding it to the salad. Mixing in advance allows the flavors to develop beautifully; however, add the avocado just before serving to prevent browning.
