Avocados give the salsa a wonderfully creamy flavor, which helps to balance the fieriness of the chicken.

How to Make It
- Put the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a rolling pin until flattened evenly. Mix the Cajun seasoning with the oil and brush over the flattened chicken. Leave to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- To make the salsa, add the corn to a large pan of boiling water and cook for 5 minutes, then immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool. Drain well, then, using a sharp knife, scrape off all the kernels. Combine with the remaining salsa ingredients, mix well, and set aside.
- Heat a griddle pan and cook the chicken for 4–5 minutes on one side, pressing the pieces down on the griddle pan, then turn and cook for 4–5 minutes on the other side, or until cooked through.
- Spoon the salsa onto serving plates and top with the griddled chicken.
