1 lb Chicken Breast cut into small bite-sized pieces
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
4 Cups Packed Greens of choice
¼ Small Red Onion sliced
¾ Cup Cherry or grape tomatoes halved
½ English Cucumber sliced or chopped
1 Avocado sliced
⅓ Cup Corn Fresh or canned
Homemade Ranch Dressing
1 Cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt

2 Tbsp Onion finely chopped
1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
2 Tbsp Fresh chives finely chopped

Instructions
Start with making the homemade ranch dressing. Add all the ingredients to a small jar, place the lid on, then shake to emulsify.
Pour about 1/3 of the dressing over the chicken and allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes. Refrigerate the remaining dressing until ready to use.
Next, heat oil in a large non-stick pan, and add in the chicken in a single layer. Cook until golden brown and cooked through about 5-7 minutes.
To assemble the salad, add green to a large bowl. Top with remaining ingredients. Just before serving toss with the dressing and enjoy!
