Cilantro-Lime Chicken with Avocado Salsa

I went running with a friend after work and by the time I got home and showered, we weren’t starting dinner until almost 7:30 pm.  Cilantro-Lime Chicken with Avocado Salsa from Cooking Light is a quick, fresh dinner for a night like tonight.

The salsa is easy to make. We omitted the onion because I hate it.

For a side we just made rice with black beans. I made the rice in chicken broth and added sriracha for some heat. I ended up adding more on my plate because it needed more.  It is a quick dinner that really tastes great and I was pretty hungry when we sat down.

I can’t wait to eat leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

 

Skirt Steaks with Deconstructed Guacamole

Tonight we made one of our favorite summer meals, Rachael Ray’s Skirt Steaks with Deconstructed Guacamole.

We altered the recipe by using a London broil.  We also marinated it for two hours.  And, per usual, omitted the onions. I avoid them in all forms crunchy.

I like this dinner because it’s colorful and the marinade is great – I’d use it on it’s own. Also, grilling the avocado makes it even creamier.
