Marinate the chicken by mixing olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic, salt, and pepper; let sit for 20–30 minutes.
Grill the marinated chicken for about 5–6 minutes on each side until cooked through (internal temp of 165°F). Rest before slicing.
Grill the corn until lightly charred (8–10 minutes), then cut the kernels from the cob.
Toss grilled corn with cumin, cayenne pepper, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl.
Whisk together Greek yogurt with lime juice and seasonings to make the dressing.
