In a large bowl, toss the chopped romaine and iceberg with enough dressing until lightly coated.
Divide among plates and top with pickled red onion, charred corn, sliced celery and leafy tops, jalapeño and thinly sliced grilled chicken.
Drizzle with buffalo sauce and top with a little extra blue cheese and cilantro, if desired.
Place fresh or thawed (if frozen) corn into a hot skillet and stir ocassionally until charred in spots.
If making individual salads, I use 2 tablespoons of the greek yogurt blue cheese dressing per salad.
