Chicken
1
Pour one half of Dressing & Marinade into large resealable plastic bag; add chicken breasts. Seal bag, removing as much air as possible. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours.
2
Preheat grill to medium-high heat; grease grates well. Place chicken on grill and reduce heat to medium. Grill, turning once, for 12 to 15 minutes or until well marked and cooked through. Grill corn for 7 to 10 minutes or until well marked. Let stand for 10 minutes; slice kernels from corn cobs. Thinly slice chicken; set aside.
3
Arrange greens on large, shallow platter. Arrange corn kernels, avocados, radishes, chicken, tomatoes, cucumber and feta decoratively over top. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
