Introduction: Indulge in the delightful and nutritious Grilled Chicken with Avocado Salsa recipe, focusing on the healthy fats in avocado and the lean protein in chicken, making this dish a heart-healthy option for people with diabetes. This vibrant and flavorful meal is a perfect choice for those looking to enjoy a delicious, guilt-free dinner without compromising their dietary needs.


Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin

  • 1/2 tsp paprika

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

For the Avocado Salsa:

  • 2 ripe avocados, diced

  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped

  • 1 medium tomato, diced

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced (optional)

  • Juice of 1 lime

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well-coated.

  2. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked and have an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for a few minutes.

  3. While the chicken is grilling, prepare the avocado salsa by combining the diced avocados, chopped red onion, diced tomato, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeno (if using), and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season the salsa with salt and black pepper to taste, and gently mix to combine.

  4. Serve the grilled chicken breasts topped with a generous scoop of avocado salsa. Enjoy this heart-healthy and diabetic-friendly meal with a side of your choice, such as a green salad or grilled vegetables.
