Ingredients
1 large shallot, minced
1 tsp honey
2 tsp white wine vinegar
1 Tbsp orange juice
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/8 tsp salt
Black pepper for taste
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (4 oz each)
2 cups cooked corn
1/2 avocado, diced
1 large tomato, diced
1/4 cup minced cilantro
Preparation
Preheat the grill to high.
In a small bowl, combine shallot, honey, vinegar and orange juice. Whisk in olive oil in a steady stream until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken in half of the dressing to coat. Set it aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In another bowl, combine corn, avocado, tomato, cilantro and the remaining half of the dressing. Set it aside.
Grill the chicken for four to six minutes per side, or until cooked through. Slice the chicken and arrange it on plates. Top with corn salsa.
