Cumin Rubbed Chicken with Avocado Salsa


Wow time flies when you forget you have a food blog...

My beautiful Auntie Shelley gave me this recipe and it is fantastic. It's healthy and delicious and super easy.

1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4-1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper (depends on how hot you like it)
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 fully ripened avocado
1 cup chopped tomato
1/2 cup diced cucumber
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice

In a small bowl, combine 1/2 teaspoon salt, cumin and pepper. Rub on chicken. In large non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken; cook, turning occasionally, until no longer pink in the center. Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine avocado, tomato, cucumber, onion, cilantro, lime juice and 1/2 tsp of salt. Serve over chicken and enjoy
