How to Make California-Style Fattoush

1. Prepare the Corn

Stand each ear of corn upright in a large bowl. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut down along the cob to remove the kernels. This method allows you to collect all the sweet corn kernels without making a mess.

2. Make the Dressing

In a large serving bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, champagne vinegar, minced shallot, and Dijon mustard. Season the dressing with a generous pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and emulsified.

3. Assemble the Salad

Add the shredded chicken, heirloom tomatoes, Persian cucumbers, torn romaine, pita chips, avocado, sunflower sprouts, dill, and cilantro to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss everything together until well-coated and evenly mixed. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

4. Finish and Serve

Sprinkle a handful of roasted salted sunflower seeds over the top of the salad for a delightful crunch. Serve immediately and enjoy.
