Ingredients
To make this wonderful summer dish, you’ll need:
- 1 ½ cups of chopped strawberries
- ½ cup of diced peeled ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons of minced seeded jalapeño pepper
- 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 teaspoons of fresh lime juice
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 4 chicken breast cutlets
- ¼ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
- 4 lime wedges
Preparation
Combine the strawberries, avocado, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and ¼ teaspoon of salt in a small bowl, and toss it well so everything combines perfectly.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add oil to it and swirl so it coats the pan. Sprinkle the chicken with the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and pepper before adding it into the pan.
Cook the chicken for 3 minutes on each side, or until the desired degree of doneness has been reached.
Divide the chicken among 4 serving plates, and top each serving evenly with a spoon of salsa and garnish it with a refreshing lime wedge.
