Instructions
- To bake the bacon: Heat oven to 400F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, then place the bacon strips side by side. Bake the bacon for 18-20 minutes or until it’s reached your desired level of crispiness. Transfer the bacon with tongs to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb extra oil. Roughly chop into small pieces.
- To cook the chicken: season it as you wish and grill the chicken thighs for 6 to 8 minutes on one side with the grill covered. Flip and grill for another 6 to 8 minutes. Let rest for a couple of minutes before dicing. Cook time will vary a bit depending on the size of your chicken thighs so use an instant-read meat thermometer to check for doneness. See my post on how to grill chicken thighs for more detailed instructions.
- Toss the romaine lettuce, red onions, tomatoes, corn, bacon, and diced chicken breasts together.
- Top with sliced avocado.
- Serve with dressing on the side or drizzled on top.
Notes
- To make my homemade honey mustard dressing, combine equal mix equal parts mayonnaise with honey and Dijon mustard.
