Description

This chicken Laredo with cilantro cream is a Southwestern treatment of grilled chicken breast with toppings to add flavor and eye appeal. We have chicken so often that sometimes I need to punch up the flavor, and we love this dish with grilled zucchini and a simple tossed salad.

Ingredient:

  • 4 (6 to 8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon
  • Cilantro Cream
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • 4 slices Monterey Jack cheese
  • To Serve
  • 1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 1/2 cup chopped tomato
  • cilantro sprigs (optional)
  • lime slices (optional)
