Chicken Salad With Avocado, Corn And Tomato

Think not the better of sin because it is in fashion. Think not the better of impiety and ungodliness, because many walk in those crooked ways. Multitude is a foolish argument; multitude does not argue the goodness of a thing. The devil’s name is Legion… The plea of a multitude will not hold out at God’s bar when God shall ask you, “Why did you break your oath?” To say then, “Lord, because most men did so,” will be but a poor plea: God will say to you, “Then seeing you have sinned with the multitude, you shall now go to hell with the multitude.

In a large bowl whisk together the olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette in a large bowl. Add the
diced chicken, corn, tomatoes, green bell pepper, garlic, basil, and
scallions and gently stir to coat and combine. Season with salt,  black
pepper and cayenne. Peel the avocados and halve them  lengthwise,
discarding the pits. Cut off a 1/4-inch slice from the  rounded side of
each avocado half so that they can sit flat and not  roll over when
stuffed. Rub the avocados well with the cut sides of  the lemons. Add
the mesclun to the reserved vinaigrette, season with  salt and pepper
and toss to combine. Arrange 1 1/2 cups of greens on  each serving
plate. Position a avocado half in center of greens.  Divide the chicken
mixture evenly among the avocado halves. Serve  immediately. This
recipe yields 4 servings.  Recipe Source: COOKING LIVE with Sara
