How to make Air Fryer Street Corn Chicken Salads

First cut a pound of chicken thighs or chicken breasts into bite size pieces.

Put them in a bowl along with some lime juice, minced garlic, olive oil, chili powder, kosher salt, and pepper.

Then toss the chicken bites until they are evenly mixed.

Next brush some olive oil on two ears corn on the cob.

And season all sides with more chili powder, kosher salt, and pepper.

Place the chicken and corn in the air fryer basket.

And set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes.

Air Fryer Cajun Chicken and Corn before cooking

Let the chicken and corn cool slightly.

And cut the kernels off of the corn.

Then assemble two of these Mexican Street Corn Salad Kits.

They are awesome because the veggies are already chopped and washed.

Plus the dressing and toppings packets are sooooo convenient.

Finally top the salads with the cooked chicken and corn 🙂

I also added cheese to my Air Fryer Street Corn Chicken Salads 🙂

Plus a little more chili powder to make them look extra street corn-ish.

Talk about an easy way to get a fabulous dinner on the table with minimal effort!

If you aren’t serving a family, these salads can easily be meal prepped with the dressing on the side.
