Grilled Chicken with Avocado Salsa

INGREDIENTS

• 4 chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon pepper

FOR THE AVOCADO SALSA

• 2 avocados diced
• 2 roma tomatoes diced
• ¼ cup chopped red onion
• ¼ cup chopped cilantro
• 1 jalapeno seeded and diced
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• Salt and pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

• Stir together the olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add in the chicken and toss to coat.
• Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Once heated, place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes total, flipping halfway through.
• Stir together the avocado salsa ingredients. Serve the chicken topped with the salsa and an extra sprinkle of cilantro. Enjoy!

NOTES

• If you have the time, you can marinade the chicken in the olive oil lime mixture for up to 8 hours before grilling.
• The avocado salsa is best made just before serving to keep the avocados fresh. If needed, you can cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the fridge for up to 2 hours before serving.
• If you are sensitive to the bite of raw onion, place it in a bowl of very cold water for 15 minutes, drain, and proceed with the recipe. This will help remove some of the strong onion flavor.
