Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, then season with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. The internal temperature should reach 165Β°F (75Β°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is cooking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, chop into bite-sized pieces.
Prepare the salad by chopping romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and arranging them on a large serving platter or individual plates.
Halve the grape tomatoes and add them to the salad.
Slice the avocado and hard-boiled eggs, then arrange them over the lettuce along with the corn kernels and chopped bacon.
Slice the red onion thinly and scatter over the salad.
Once the chicken is ready, slice it into strips and add it to the salad.
Drizzle dairy-free ranch dressing over the salad before serving.
Toss gently to combine all ingredients just before serving, if desired.
