INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Black Beans
1 medium roasted Red Bell Pepper
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by preparing the marinade: In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of lime juice, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the 4-ounce chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Let the chicken marinate for at least 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the chicken is marinating, preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Also, prepare the red bell pepper by roasting it (you can use a grill, oven, or stovetop method) until the skin is slightly charred. Once roasted, peel and slice it into strips.
Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Warm the cooked black beans in a small pot over medium heat until heated through. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Assemble your plate by laying down the warm black beans, placing the grilled chicken on top, and arranging the roasted red pepper slices around the dish. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this zingy, balanced meal!
