A flavorful grilled chicken dish infused with zesty lime and chili, topped with fresh avocado.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken cutlets

  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Combine lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.

  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches a safe internal temperature (165°F/75°C).

  6. Place the grilled chicken on a serving platter and top it with the avocado mixture. Garnish with cilantro if desired.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for up to 2 hours. Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best taste.
