Grilled Chicken with Avocado Salsa

Ingredients

  • Avocado salsa ingredients:
  • 4 large (6-8 ounces each) boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh finely chopped cilantro
  • oil, preferably in a spray bottle
  • Tapatio hot sauce
  • 2 cups chopped fresh tomato
  • 4-5 green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh chopped cilantro (or more, to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon or lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • dash black pepper
  • 1 large avocado, finely chopped (about 3/4 cup)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Lay chicken breasts in a 9x13-inch dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cilantro; spray with oil and splash with Tapatio. Turn chicken over and repeat on other side. Set aside.

2. Combine salsa ingredients (except avocado) in a medium bowl and stir to mix. Add avocado and stir gently to combine. Set aside.
3. Preheat grill.* Grill chicken until done (our Weber Q grill takes 10-12 minutes on medium, grilling with lid closed). Serve hot chicken with fresh salsa.
