PREPARATION FOR GRILLED CHICKEN WITH AVOCADO SALSA

  1. Preheat grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat—lightly oil the grates to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  1. Season and Grill Chicken: Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil to keep it moist. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
  1. Prepare Avocado Salsa: Combine the diced avocado, tomato, red onion, lime juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl on the chicken grill. Gently toss to mix.
  1. Serve: Once you cook the chicken, remove it from the grill and rest for a few minutes. Top the chicken with the fresh avocado salsa before serving.

COOKING TIME

TIPS FOR GRILLED CHICKEN WITH AVOCADO SALSA

  • Marination: For extra flavour, marinate the chicken in lime juice, olive oil, and minced garlic for 30 minutes before grilling.
  • Salsa Variations: Add diced jalapeño for a spicy kick or chopped cilantro for an extra layer of flavour.
  • Grill Marks: Press down on the chicken breast with a spatula for a few seconds to create beautiful grill marks.

VARIATIONS

  • Spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chilli powder to the chicken seasoning for a tangy twist.
  • Cheesy: Sprinkle crumbled feta or cotija cheese over the avocado salsa for added richness.
  • Vegetarian Option: Replace the chicken with grilled portobello mushrooms or a firm tofu steak.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Store leftover chicken and salsa in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Freezing: You can freeze grilled chicken for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating. The avocado salsa is best made fresh.
  • Reheating: Reheat the chicken in a skillet or microwave until warmed through. Top with fresh salsa before serving.
