Preparation Steps
  1. Marinate chicken: Place chicken, lime juice, honey, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large ziptop bag. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill chicken for 7-8 minutes per side until cooked through. Simultaneously, grill corn for about 7 minutes, turning every minute.
  3. Remove chicken and corn from grill. Cut corn off the cob into a large bowl. Melt butter and toss with corn to coat.
  4. Dice cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add to the bowl with corn.
  5. Add diced avocado, bell pepper, tomatoes, and cilantro to the bowl. Mix well. Drizzle with additional lime juice if desired.
  6. Serve immediately or chill before serving.
