INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Black Beans (low sodium, drained)
1/2 cup cooked White Rice
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped
2 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by marinating the chicken: In a small bowl, mix the lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper.
Coat the 3 ounces of chicken breast in the marinade and let it rest for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and slightly charred on the edges.
While the chicken cooks, gently warm the black beans in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.
Reheat or prepare the cooked white rice to serve as a base for the dish.
Slice the cooked chicken and arrange it over a bed of fluffy rice, alongside a serving of warmed black beans.
Garnish with extra fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime if desired before serving.
