SWEETCORN & CHICKEN RANCH SALAD

Directions

Strip with sweetcorn from the husk and simmer or barbeque for 3-5 minutes until tender, then when cool enough to handle cut the kernels from the cobs, keeping them in rows as much as you can. 

Pan fry bacon until it’s crispy. Dice once cooled.

Toss the baby spinach leaves with a drizzle of olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper.  

Arrange the dressed spinach leaves on a platter or individual plates and top with the sweetcorn kernels, sliced chicken and avocado then drizzle over the dressing and garnish with crispy bacon bits.  Sprinkle with seasoning and chilli flakes if desired.
