Oh boy, this is my new favorite summer meal. The peaches and corn salsa are the stars of this “in season” summer dish. If you are looking for a vegetarian option, use chickpeas and seasoning with spices and roast in the oven or electric skillet.
1 pound of boneless skinless chicken breast or chicken thighs
2 tablespoons of grapeseed or avocado oil
1 ½ teaspoon each cumin, chili powder and minced garlic
½ teaspoon each salt, paprika, red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon pepper and oregano
4 peaches, cut in half and pitted
2 cups of cooked rice or cauliflower rice (see recipe)
2 avocado, mashed and mix with lime juice and salt to taste
purple cabbage, sliced (cone 4)
Cotija cheese (optional)
Lime wedges
1. Marinate chicken with oil and spices for 1 hour or longer.
2. Grill or cook in electric skillet at 425 (10 minutes a side, lid ajar)
3. Brush peach with oil and grill for 2 minutes per side.
4. Make corn/lime salsa.
5. Assemble bowls with rice, corn salsa, peaches, avocado mash and chicken.
6. Top with cheese and lime juice.
Corn and Lime Salsa
4 ears of corn
2 Tablespoons of olive oil (I like garlic infused)
1 jalapeno, finely chopped
½ red onion, diced or cone 2
⅓ cup cilantro (finely chopped)
Juice of one lime
Preheat skillet and spray with avocado oil spray. Then add corn and slightly brown for 4-5 minutes.
Remove from heat and mix in olive oil, jalapeno, onion, cabbage, lime juice, cilantro and add salt as desired.
