Recipe: Salsa Chicken, Green Salad and Sweet Pepper Salsa Dinner
MenusADVERTISEMENT
SALSA CHICKEN, GREEN SALAD & SWEET PEPPER SALSA DINNER
quart sized zipper lock plastic bag (for marinating)
1/2 jar of your favorite salsa (mine is Enrico's hot)
1 to 1-1/2 lbs. Boneless, skinless chicken breast
Fresh salad greens (See Step Two)
1 package tortillas
1 yellow or orange bell pepper, seeded, chopped coarsely
1 red or green bell pepper, seeded, chopped coarsely
1 small or 1/2 medium onion, diced
1 large clove garlic, minced, 1/2 TBS. Cumin, 1 TBS cilantro or parsley (more if fresh)
1/4 tsp. Cayenne pepper
STEP ONE: SALSA CHICKEN: Rinse and trim your boneless breasts. Place in zipperloc bag with your favorite salsa. If you're eating in 30 minutes, marinate on the counter, turn often; otherwise marinate in fridge.
STEP TWO: SALAD GREENS: While chicken is marinating, make a big salad bowl of your favorite greens. I used these ready from the supermarket:
1/2 bag spinach, 1 head Boston lettuce, rinsed & torn, 1/2 bag mesclun greens mix
STEP THREE: SWEET PEPPER SALSA:
In small saucepan, heat 1 tsp. Olive oil. Add chopped onion, saute until softened and add chopped peppers, stirring well. When peppers begin to cook, sprinkle on cumin, stir. Add parsley or cilantro. Add garlic and stir well. When heat comes back up sprinkle in your cayenne and fresh black pepper, add a bit of salt if desired. When peppers are soft cover and set aside.
STEP FOUR - COOK CHICKEN: spray non-stick grill frypan w/olive oil, heat it up, add marinated breasts. Turn after 5-7 minutes, grill other side. Be sure chicken fully cooked but moist in thickest center before serving.
STEP FIVE - while chicken cooks heat tortillas per label instructions.
SERVE: warm folded tortilla, chicken for slicing, big pile of greens and pepper salsa on each plate. Pass salad dressing for extra greens. Good Health to you!
SERVE! On each plate: a warm folded tortilla, chicken portion for slicing, generous portion of salad, bell pepper salsa. Stuff tortillas w/all, pass salad dressing for leftover greens. Good Health!
