    Start by boiling the eggs. Fill a large saucepan with water (enough to cover the eggs by 1 inch). Bring the water to a gentle boil. Lower the eggs into the simmering water and cook for 8 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a large bowl with ice water. Once the eggs are done, take them out of the boiling water and immediately lower them into the ice water. After 15 minutes, you can either refrigerate the eggs or peel them and slice them in half.

    Bake the bacon. While the eggs are cooking, preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and then place the bacon strips side-by-side on the sheet pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the bacon is crisp. Using tongs, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels.

    Grill the chicken and corn.*** Preheat the grill to 400°F (medium-high). While the grill heats, season the chicken with salt and pepper. Then, place the chicken and corn on the grill. Cook the chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it reaches 165°F. Cook the corn for about 10 minutes total, until the kernels are lightly charred. Slice the chicken and toss it with the buffalo sauce. Cut the charred kernels off of the corn cobs.

    Tips & Tricks (5)

    • Buffalo Sauce Mastery 🌶️
      Create a perfect buffalo sauce by whisking together hot sauce, melted light butter-oil blend, and a touch of yogurt for a creamy, tangy coating that clings beautifully to the chicken.
    • Chicken Prep Perfection 🍗
      For maximum flavor absorption, marinate the lean ground beef or drumfish in buttermilk yogurt for at least 30 minutes before cooking to tenderize and infuse with tanginess.
    • Salad Texture Balance 🥗
      Toast macadamia nuts lightly to add a crunchy contrast to the soft yogurt and tender chicken, creating a multi-dimensional texture in your Cobb salad.
    • Dressing Emulsion Trick 🥄
      Whisk the buttermilk yogurt dressing with a small amount of pesto to create a smooth, herb-infused emulsion that coats the salad ingredients evenly.
    • Flavor Layer Technique 🧀
      Crumble Tilsit cheese and sprinkle pimento cheese strategically to create pockets of tangy, creamy flavor throughout the salad.
