Instructions
- Take the meat off the chicken and discard the skin. Cut the white and dark meat into bite-sized pieces before adding the chicken to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the black beans, corn, red onion, cilantro, Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to the same bowl. Stir everything together until combined and evenly coated.
- Allow the chicken salad to sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to marry together.
- Serve chilled on bread for a chicken salad sandwich, in lettuce leaves for a lettuce wrap, or with crackers for a yummy appetizer dip.

Notes
- For the corn, you can either boil 2 ears of corn and then cut off the kernels once cooled or drain a 15-ounce can of corn kernels and use that. Fresh cooked definitely tastes best, but canned is a great option when you're in a hurry.
