Fresh Corn & Chicken Salad

I found the beginning of this salad in Sunset magazine, but it didn't have the avacados or the cheese...the fools!

2 ears corn
1 whole chicken breast -- cooked
2 small avacados -- diced
1 can ripe olives -- drained and sliced
1 can pinto beans -- rinsed and drained
2 green onions -- sliced
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro -- chopped
2 cups lettuce leaves
1/4 cup olive oil
2 small limes -- juiced
1/4 teaspoon cumin -- dried
1 clove garlic -- minced
salt and pepper -- to taste
1 cup queso fresco -- crumbled


Steam corn slightly. Let cool. Cut off cob.
Chop chicken breast into bite size pieces. A grocery store cooked chicken works great.
Mix together all salad ingredients.
make dressing from lime juice, olive oil, cumin, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour over and toss.
