Spicy Chipotle Chicken with Peach Salsa
FitMenCook
My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is truly a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and enjoying adequate exercise. By experimenting in the kitchen and openly sharing my meals, I learned that healthy eating is hardly boring and that by making a few adjustments, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my personal fitness goals. Our bodies are built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym.
Spicy Chipotle Chicken with Peach Salsa
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Ingredients
Ingredients for 3 servings
- 1lb raw chicken breast
- 4 tablespoons chipotle in adobo
- 1 tablespoon The Fit Cook Everyday garlicky herb seasoning
- OR 2 teaspoons onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of pepper
Steps
- Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and add to a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and rub all over the chicken. Let the chicken marinate for at least 20 minutes (or overnight covered in the fridge). When ready to cook, allow the chicken to rest at room temperature for 10 – 15 minutes to allow for more even cooking which results in a juicier chicken.
- Set a griddle or carbon steel pan on medium high heat. Once hot, spray with avocado oil and add the chicken. Cook for 6 – 8 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
- Rest and serve with peach salsa. Enjoy with your choice of grain like jasmine rice or for a lighter option, cauliflower rice.
