This salad is my go to weeknight dinner when I’m out all day on a shoot. After a long day it’s easy to throw together, plus the chicken and dressing can be made ahead of time.
Place all of the ingredients for the dressing in a small mixing bowl and whisk until all ingredients are combined.
For the chicken:
Heat the grill to high. Brush the chicken with the barbecue sauce until completely coated. Grill the chicken until completely cooked through.
Remove the chicken from grill and let stand on a cutting board for 5 minutes. When cool to the touch cut the chicken into 1” pieces.
To assemble the salad:
Place the butter lettuce in a large mixing bowl. Add dressing to the salad, 2 tablespoons at a time and toss until all lettuce is lightly and evenly coated.
Add the green onions, corn, black beans and avocado then toss to combine.
Divide the salad evenly into bowls, top each with some of the chicken and queso fresco. Serve immediately.
