INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lime
3 tbsp Fresh Cilantro (divided)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 small Red Onion
1/4 Jalapeño Pepper
1/4 medium Avocado
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the chicken marinade: in a small bowl, combine 1 tsp of olive oil, juice from one lime, and 1.5 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the 5 oz chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the fresh salsa. Dice the cherry tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper into small pieces. In a bowl, mix these with the remaining 1.5 tablespoons of chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Season lightly with salt.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated chicken on the grill. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
To serve, slice the grilled chicken and top with a generous spoonful of fresh salsa. Add slices of avocado on the side for a creamy texture.
Enjoy your vibrant Lime-Cilantro Grilled Chicken with Fresh Salsa as a balanced meal that's both refreshing and protein-packed.
