Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cups cooked quinoa
- 1 1/2 cups mango, diced
- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 2 cups red cabbage, shredded
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- to taste kosher salt and black pepper
Instructions
- Pat chicken dry and season both sides with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Let it sit while you prep the mango and toppings.
- Whisk lime juice, olive oil, honey, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Toss half of this dressing with the diced mango and cilantro to make a quick salsa.
- Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken 5–7 minutes per side, until browned and the thickest part reaches 165°F. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Fluff warm quinoa with a fork and stir in the remaining lime dressing. Taste and add more salt if needed.
- Assemble bowls with quinoa, sliced chicken, mango salsa, cabbage, and avocado. Spoon any extra juices from the mango over the chicken for more flavor.
