INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil (for marinade)
1 medium Tomato
1/4 cup Red Onion
1 small Jalapeño Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil (for salsa)
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the fresh lime juice with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it's evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the fresh salsa. Dice the tomato, finely chop the red onion, and mince the jalapeño pepper. In a mixing bowl, combine these with the fresh cilantro and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the chicken if desired and top with a generous spoonful of the fresh salsa.
Serve immediately and enjoy this vibrant, flavorful dish.
