Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cumin.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, rinse and drain the pinto beans and sweet corn thoroughly.
Finely dice the red bell pepper and red onion, and roughly chop the fresh cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lime juice to create a simple vinaigrette.
Once the chicken is finished, let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken, pinto beans, corn, bell pepper, onion, and cilantro.
Drizzle the lime dressing over the salad, toss gently to combine all flavors, and serve immediately.
