SUMMER GRILLED CHICKEN SALAD

A healthful, affordable recipe. French bread is nice with this dish.

30 minutes
Serves: 4

• 4 chicken thighs, skinless
• 1-1/2 tsp seasoned salt (optional)
• 2 ears corn-on-the-cob, fresh with husk (frozen or canned may be used)
• 1 10-oz. package frozen lima beans, cooked
• 1 small red bell pepper, diced
• 1 16-oz. can black beans, drained
• 1 Tbsp cilantro, chopped
• 1/4 cup Italian lowfat salad dressing
 

1. Start grill. Sprinkle seasoned salt over the chicken thighs and grill them until done over medium high heat, about 10-15 minutes or until juices run clear.

2. Remove the chicken from the grill and allow to cool, then remove the meat from the bone and dice into large pieces.

3. While the chicken is cooling, place the fresh corn still in the husk on the grill for 15-20 minutes. Remove the corn kernels from the cob.

4. Combine diced chicken, corn kernels, and remaining ingredients. Toss with dressing and coat well.
