While chicken is cooking, combine all ingredients for the lime dressing into a small mixing bowl. Whisk well to combine.

Salad:

 Once the chicken breast has cooled, cut into small cubes. Combine in a large bowl with the ingredients for the salad (cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, corn, and avocado).
