Step 1

For the dressing, Place the chipotle, cumin and garlic in a food processor and process until until chopped. Add the sour cream, mayonnaise and coriander and process again, until smooth. Transfer mixture to a bowl. Cover and place in the fridge until required.

Preheat a chargrill or barbecue grill over high heat. Add corn and cook, turning often, for 15 minutes or until tender and charred.

Set aside.

Step 3

Remove meat from the barbecue chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Chop or tear the meat into large pieces.

Step 4

Spread a layer of the dressing over the base of 4 serving plates. Arrange the lettuce, tomato, corn, avocado and chicken on top. Drizzle with the remaining dressing. Sprinkle over coriander sprigs and shallots. Serve with the chargrilled lime halves.
