Instructions
- 01
In a medium mixing bowl whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, oregano, dijon mustard, honey and garlic. Season with 1 tsp black pepper (don't add salt yet).
- 02
Whisk again then scoop out 1/3 cup of the dressing mixture and pour into a gallon size resealable bag. Add 1 tsp salt to the bag, then add chicken, seal bag while pressing out excess air. Rub dressing over chicken, transfer to fridge to marinate for 1 to 4 hours.

Season remaining dressing mixture with salt to taste, transfer dressing to an airtight container and chill until ready to serve salad (if olive oil solidifies let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes).

Preheat a gas grill over medium-high heat to 450 degrees. Grill chicken about 5 to 6 minutes per side (with grill lid closed) until internal temperature of chicken registers 165°F on an instant read food thermometer.
- 05
Also grill corn about 10 minutes until lightly charred, turning occasionally.
- 06
Let chicken cool 20 minutes before slicing into bite size pieces. Cut corn kernels from cobs.
- 07
To a large salad bowl or 5 individual serving plates, layer together Romaine lettuce, grilled chicken, corn, bacon, tomatoes, red onion, avocado, and feta cheese.
