Cayenne-Rubbed Chicken WIth Avocado Salsa
I made this yummy healthy chicken dish last night for dinner and it was full of flavor.
This had just the right amount of heat. I had leftovers and made an amazing sandwich
for lunch! Enjoy!
Cayenne-Rubbed Chicken With Avocado Salsa ~Everyday Food
salt and pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium red onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 Hass avocado, pitted and cut into chunks
1) In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and cayenne
rub all over chicken.
2) In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken and cooked until
browned on the outside and cooked throughout, 8 to 10 minutes per side.
3) Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine onion and lime juice, set aside.
Just before serving, fold avocado chunks into onion mixture. Season with
salt and pepper. Serve chicken topped with salsa.
sounds yummy and easy to make!
