Ingredients
  

For the chicken marinade
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 units limes (juiced)
  • 1 piece avocado (sliced)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • for grilling as needed olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well-blended.
  2. Marinate the chicken breasts in this mixture for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors develop.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and brush it lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until thoroughly cooked and juices run clear.
Serving
  1. Serve your perfectly grilled chicken topped with slices of avocado and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
