PINEAPPLE CHICKEN BOWLS

My husband has been asking for pineapple chicken, so I decided to whip together this pineapple chicken bowl and he was raving about it! I prepped it on a Sunday night and it was great as leftovers throughout the week! I adapted this recipe from

INGREDIENTS

• 3 chicken breasts
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp lime juice
• 2 tsp minced garlic
• 2 tsp honey
• 3 tsp cumin
• 1 fresh pineapple, chopped into 1/2 inch cubes (discard core and outside)
• 1 cup loosely packed cilantro, chopped
• 1 jalapeno, chopped
• 1/2 cup red onion, chopped
• 1 large avocado, sliced
• Salt and pepper
• Brown rice (We love Trader Joe’s frozen organic brown rice!)

DIRECTIONS

1. In a bowl or ziplock bag, combine chicken, olive oil, 1/4 cup of lime juice, garlic, honey, 2 1/2 tsp of cumin as well as salt and pepper to taste. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 2-3 hours.
2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine pineapple, cilantro, jalapeno, red onion, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
3. Once chicken is done marinating, preheat grill or pan to roughly 400 degrees F and be sure to spray with non-stick grill spray. Grill chicken for 4-6 minutes per side, or until no longer pink inside. Remove from heat.
4. Slice chicken and serve over brown rice (or cauliflower rice!) and top with avocado and pineapple salsa!
