Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing the avocado mixture. In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados until smooth. Add in the chopped cilantro, minced garlic, lime juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined. Set aside.

  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. This will help enhance the flavors of the dish.

  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

  4. Once the chicken is cooked, reduce the heat to low. Spread the avocado mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the skillet. Allow the mixture to heat through for about 2-3 minutes, ensuring the flavors meld together.

  5. Remove the skillet from the heat. Serve the Avocado and Cilantro Chicken hot, garnished with additional cilantro leaves or a squeeze of fresh lime juice for an extra burst of flavor.
