Lime-Cilantro Grilled Chicken with Fresh Salsa
Enjoy a vibrant plate of juicy lime-cilantro grilled chicken paired with a refreshing tomato-based fresh salsa. The citrus and herb marinade elevates the tender chicken to a burst of flavor, while the salsa provides a crisp, tangy contrast that makes each bite exciting and light.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 medium Lime
1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro
1 medium Tomato
1/4 cup Red Onion
1 small Jalapeño
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by marinating the chicken: in a bowl, combine the olive oil, juice from the lime, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken breast in the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the fresh salsa. Dice the tomato and red onion finely, and mince the jalapeño (remove seeds if less heat is desired). Toss together in a bowl and add a splash of lime juice and a pinch of salt.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated chicken on the grill.
Cook the chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Avoid overcooking to maintain juiciness.
Once grilled, let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.
Plate the sliced chicken along with a generous serving of the fresh salsa. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve immediately.
