Marinade for Grilled Chicken

Method

Marinade for Grilled Chicken

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

2

Marinate the Chicken

Add the boneless chicken breasts to the marinade, making sure they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.

3

Grill the Chicken

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

4

Garnish

Sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro over the grilled chicken before serving.

Combine Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine diced tomatoes, finely chopped onion, minced jalapeño, lime juice, salt, and chopped cilantro.

6

Mix

Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well combined. Adjust seasoning and lime juice to taste.

7

Chill

Let the pico de gallo sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.

Guacamole

8

Mash the Avocados

In a bowl, scoop out the ripe avocados and mash them with a fork until smooth.

9

Add Flavorings

Mix in lime juice, minced garlic, salt, chopped cilantro, and finely chopped onion. Stir until well combined.

10

Taste and Adjust

Taste the guacamole and adjust seasoning as desired, adding more lime juice or salt to taste.

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for the grilled chicken.
