Ingredients

  • 2 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 1 Cup Cooked Brown Rice
  • 1 Tbsp Lime Juice
  • 1 Small Avocado sliced
  • 2 Cups Mixed Greens
  • ½ Cup Black Beans
  • ½ Cup Canned corn, drained or grilled
  • Cup Cherry Tomatoes cut into quarters
  • 2 Tbsp Greek yogurt
  • ½ Red onion diced
  • 1 Jalapeno Pepper sliced
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • A small handful of chopped cilantro, plus more to garnish

For the Chicken Marinade

  • 2 Tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

  • In a ziploc bag, mix all marinade ingredients until smooth. Add chicken, seal the bag and shake until chicken is evenly coated.
  • Heat a grill pan or an outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the inside.
