  2. If using fresh corn, grill for about 10 minutes and cut kernels off when cooled. Combine corn with diced chicken.
  3. Wash and dice cucumbers and finely chop red onion. Add to the mixing bowl with chicken and corn.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, and smoked paprika until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
