Food Safety

Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps

  1. Stir together parsley, chives, mustard, honey, shallots, garlic, lemon zest, lime zest and orange zest. Stir in lemon juice, lime juice, orange juice, salt and pepper. While whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in olive oil until well combined. Divide mixture in half.

  2. Pour one half of Dressing & Marinade into large resealable plastic bag; add chicken breasts. Seal bag, removing as much air as possible. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours.

  3. Preheat grill to medium-high heat; grease grates well. Place chicken on grill and reduce heat to medium. Grill, turning once, for 12 to 15 minutes or until well marked and cooked through. Grill corn for 7 to 10 minutes or until well marked. Let stand for 10 minutes; slice kernels from corn cobs. Thinly slice chicken; set aside.

  4. Arrange greens on large, shallow platter. Arrange corn kernels, avocados, radishes, chicken, tomatoes, cucumber and feta decoratively over top. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
