CHIPOTLE CHICKEN MEXICAN STREET CORN SALAD

Steps:

• For the chipotle chicken, combine the chipotle chili powder, onion powder, cumin, and coconut aminos until combined. Add the chicken thighs/breasts and turn to coat them completely. Place a lid on the container, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but overnight is more flavorful.
• When you're ready to make the salad, preheat the grill over medium high heat until a temperature between 400-450ºF is reached. Place the ears of corn on the grill and turn every couple of minutes as the sides begin to char. You're looking for a nice dark brown, almost but not black color to be appearing on some of the kernels before you rotate the ear of corn. This whole process takes about 6-8 minutes.
• When the corn is done, remove the ears from the grill, and set them aside to cool a bit. Meanwhile turn the grill down to medium to maintain a temperature of around 350ºF. Grill the chicken, 6-8 minutes per side for your averaged sized chicken thighs, and around 8-12 minutes per side for chicken breasts, (chicken always varies in cooking time because they're never the same size).
• While the chicken grills, add all the ingredients for the street corn salad into a bowl, except for the corn. When the grilled corn is cool enough to handle, stand 1 ear at a time on the cutting board on the flat end. Use a sharp knife to cut the kernels away from the cob, being careful not to cut too deeply into the cob which is tough. Add the kernels to the salad. Mix to combine, taste test and adjust the salt as necessary, and set it aside.
• When the chicken is done, remove it from the grill and set it aside while you finish making the salad.
• In a large serving bowl, add in the romaine, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and optional jalapeno and Cojita cheese.
• To make the cilantro dressing add the cilantro, garlic, and lime juice to the blender. Blend starting on low and working up to speeds 3-4 on a Vitamix. When the mixture is still chunky, start adding in the avocado oil in a thin steady stream with the blender running. Keep blending until all the oil has been added, and the dressing is emulsified. Add sea salt to taste, and blend again just to combine.
• When the chicken has cooled a bit, cut it into strips or bite sized pieces, and add it to the serving bowl. From here you can serve it all separately, or add the street corn salad and cilantro dressing to the serving bowl, and toss before serving.

SMOKY CHIPOTLE CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine the mayonnaise, vinegar, pureed chipotles, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir in the celery, onions, pepper, and chicken until the chicken salad is well combined. Serve chilled.
• Place the chicken and add-ins in a pot: Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the bottom of the pot. It's fine if they overlap a little, but they cook more evenly if they are in a single layer. Scatter the salt and seasonings over top.
• Cover the chicken with water: If using wine, pour this over the chicken first. Pour in enough cool water to cover the chicken by an inch or so.
• Bring the water to a boil: Place the pot of chicken on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Bring the water to a boil. You'll see some white scummy foam collecting on the surface as the water comes to a boil-if you'll be using the poaching liquid for a soup or other recipe, you can skim this off; otherwise, it's fine to leave it.
• Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook: As soon as the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the chicken simmer. Begin checking the chicken after 8 minutes: it is done when opaque through the middle and an instant-read thermometer in the thickest part of the meat registers 165 F. Chicken will typically finish cooking in 10 to 14 minutes depending on the thickness of the meat.
• Remove from the poaching liquid: Remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and place it on a cutting board.
