Steps:
- Sprinkle scallions with lime juice and 1 teaspoon salt. Cover and refrigerate. Mix remaining ingredients except lettuce, oranges and avocados; cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour. Spoon salad on lettuce. Garnish with oranges and avocados; sprinkle with scallions.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe oranges. Use Valencia or navel oranges, as they are sweet and juicy. Avoid oranges that have blemishes or bruises.
- Zest the oranges before juicing them. The zest adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the dressing.
- Choose a good-quality olive oil. Extra-virgin olive oil is the best choice, as it has a rich, fruity flavor.
- Use fresh herbs, if possible. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, mint, or basil, add a lot of flavor to the salad.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
- Let the salad rest before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.

This chicken and orange salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The combination of sweet oranges, savory chicken, and tangy dressing is sure to please everyone at the table. With its healthy ingredients and simple preparation, this salad is a great way to enjoy the flavors of summer.
