Enjoy a satisfying dish featuring tender, oven-crisped chicken breast topped with a refreshing, zesty salsa, and accompanied by crunchy baked tortilla strips. This dish balances a delightful mix of flavors and textures, perfect for a healthy dinner option.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Corn Tortillas (baked as strips)
1 medium Tomato
1/4 small Red Onion
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
1 small Jalapeño
2 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Place the seasoned chicken on the tray and bake for 20-25 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), turning halfway for even crispness.
Meanwhile, cut the tomato into small dice, finely chop the red onion (use about 1/4 of a small onion), cilantro, and jalapeño. Mix these in a bowl with lime juice to create the zesty salsa. Adjust salt if necessary.
For the tortilla strips, cut the corn tortilla into thin strips. Place them on a separate baking sheet and bake in the oven for 6-8 minutes until crispy. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
Once the chicken is cooked, slice it if desired and plate with a generous spoonful of zesty salsa and a side of crispy tortilla strips.
Enjoy your balanced meal!
