Cilantro-Lime Avocado Chicken Pasta for One

Servings: 1

Prep Time: 20-25 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbsp chopped cilantro
• 1 1/2 Tbsp lime juice
• 1/2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black ground pepper
• 1 boneless skinless chicken breast half
• Cooking spray
• 1 package Shiritaki Tofu Noodles (or any pasta of choice)

Salsa:

• 1/2 cup diced tomato
• 1/2 tsp lime juice
• 1/4 cup diced purple onion
• 1/2 diced avocado

Directions:

1. Place first 5 ingredients in a bowl (cilantro through pepper) and stir to combine. Put marinade into a plastic bag and then add chicken breast. Allow to marinate for 5-10 minutes.

2. Heat pan to medium and coat with cooking spray. Once chicken is done marinating, cook on pan for 8-10 minutes on each side, depending on thickness.

3. While chicken cooks, heat and prepare noodles as directed. (For Shiritaki Tofu Noodles: I rinsed noodles in a strainer, dried, then heated them in a separate pan with cooking spray.)

4. Next, prepare salsa. Combine tomato, onion, and lime juice in a bowl and stir to combine. Add avocado and gently mix.

5. When chicken and noodles are done, place chicken on noodle bed and top with salsa.
