INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/2 cup Black Beans (rinsed)
1/4 medium Avocado
1 Tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
2 Tbsp Fresh Cilantro
PREPARATION
Begin by preheating your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, cumin, and cayenne pepper.
Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once done, allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions. If not already cooked, rinse 1/2 cup quinoa and simmer in water until fluffy.
Warm the black beans in a small saucepan over low heat. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and a dash of cumin to enhance flavor.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa and black beans. Add a tablespoon of lime juice and gently toss to blend the flavors.
Assemble the bowl by placing the quinoa and bean mixture at the base, then adding the sliced grilled chicken on top.
Dice the avocado and sprinkle it over the bowl. Garnish with fresh cilantro and, if desired, an extra squeeze of lime juice.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy the perfect balance of spicy, citrusy, and savory flavors.
