LIME YOGHURT DRESSING

Steps
01.
Combine paprika, cumin and 2 tbsps of the oil in a large bowl. Add chicken; toss to coat. Cover; refrigerate for 1 hr or overnight
02.
Make lime yoghurt dressing. Combine yoghurt and fetta in a medium bowl. Finely grate the rind from limes. Squeeze the juice; you will need 2 tbsps. Add rind and juice to yoghurt mixture. Season to taste.
03.
Brush corn with 1 tbsp of the remaining oil. Cook corn on a heated grill plate (or grill or barbecue) over high heat for 12 mins, turning frequently, or until lightly charred and tender. Transfer to a plate; cool slightly. Cut corn kernels from the cobs; place in a medium bowl. Cook chilli on heated grill plate for 1 min each side or until browned and tender; transfer to a plate.
04.
Reduce heat to medium-high. Cook chicken on grill plate for 3 mins on each side until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm.
05.
Run pitta quickly under water until just dampened; place on heated grill plate until browned on both sides. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm.
06.
Place herbs and salad leaves in a medium bowl with remaining oil; toss gently to combine. Season.
07.
Place pitta on plates; top with salad mixture, drizzle with some of the dressing. Top with corn, avocado and chicken; drizzle with remaining dressing. Top with chilli. Serve with lime wedges.
