Description

Ingredients

• Leftover Pulled Pork (use this recipe) OR shredded chicken
• 2 fresh corn cobs, or ½ cup tinned corn, rinsed and drained
• ½ yellow capsicum/bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
• ½ red capsicum/bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
• 1 poblano pepper (ancho chile), deseeded and sliced
• 5 cups Romaine or Cos lettuce leaves, washed and dried
• 2 avocados, sliced
• Extra coriander leaves to garnish
• Lime slices, to garnish
• 1 cup Cilantro Lime Rice*
• ¼ cup olive oil
• Juice of 2 limes (1/4 cup lime juice)
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 chipotle chile, chopped finely
• 1-2 tablespoons adobo (adjust to your tastes)
• ¼ cup roughly chopped cilantro (coriander)

• 1-2 teaspoons salt pepper to taste

Directions

• Warm up your leftover Mexican Pulled Pork (using this recipe) or shredded chicken. Use as much or as little as you like.
• Remove corn kernels from cobs. Vertically stand a cob up on a chopping board with the widest, cut-side flat on the board (holding the narrowest part), and using a sharp knife, slice downward to remove all the kernels. Rotate cob to the next section. Repeat until all of the corn is removed. Place corn in a skillet or nonstick pan over medium heat; toast until it begins to smell like popcorn and looks toasted (about 4 minutes).
• While the corn is cooking, combine all dressing ingredients together in a shallow bowl or jug; whisk until well combined.
• Combine all of the salad ingredients together in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad to serve!
