Easy Grilled Avocado Chicken

This recipe features marinated chicken breasts grilled to perfection and topped with fresh avocado slices. It takes approximately 30 minutes to prepare and cook, serving 4 people.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 ripe avocados, sliced
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat the Grill: Heat the grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Add Avocado: During the last few minutes of grilling, place the avocado slices on the grill for 1-2 minutes until slightly charred.
Serve: Remove the chicken from the grill and top with grilled avocado slices. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
