Allergens

None

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 cup mixed tropical fruits (papaya, pineapple, mango)
  • 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons jerk seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the jerk seasoning with olive oil until well combined. Rub the chicken breasts with the jerk mixture, ensuring an even coating. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight for maximum flavor.
  2. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium high heat. Grill the seasoned chicken breasts until cooked through and no longer pink in the center, about 6 7 minutes per side. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
  3. Slice the avocado and remove the pit. Slice the lime in half. Wash and chop the cilantro leaves. Cut the tropical fruits into bite sized pieces.
  4. Assemble the breakfast bowl by adding sliced chicken, avocado, and tropical fruits in layers. Squeeze lime juice over the top for a burst of fresh flavor. Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves.

Chef’s Insight

The key to this dish is balancing the flavors - the spiciness of the jerk seasoning, the creaminess of the avocado, and the sweetness of the tropical fruits come together in perfect harmony.
