Salsa Verde Chicken
15 mins prepServes 2
This grilled salsa verde chicken recipe is perfect for any grilling season. It's simple to prepare, requires a little time to marinade for maximum flavor, and results in a delicious main dish. Recommended served with Spanish rice.
Slice the chicken breast so they are thinner (or pound them). In a bowl, mix the salsa, olive oil, juice from 1 lime, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken to the marinade and let it marinate for at least 1 hour (2 hours is recommended). Preheat your grill. Cook the chicken for 3-5 minutes per side. When flipping, add the spicy cheese halfway through the second side's cooking time. Remove from the grill and let rest. Spritz with more lime juice as needed and top with fresh cilantro before serving.
