CHICKEN WITH AVOCADO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Combine the cornstarch, cumin, and garlic salt in a shallow dish and set aside.
• Beat the egg along with the water and place in a shallow dish.
• Put the cornmeal in a shallow dish.
• Coat the chicken in the cornstarch mix, followed by the egg mixture, and finally coat with the cornmeal.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and place the chicken in it in a single layer, cooking about 4 minutes on each side.
• Remove the chicken from the skillet and place in a shallow baking dish.
• Cut the avocado in half (removing the pit of course), and then cut into quarters.
• Finally cut the avocados into slices about 1/4-1/2 inch wide (I like to have at least 3 slices for each chicken breast.) Place the avocado slices over the chicken and then sprinkle the cheese evenly over the chicken.
• Bake for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is well melted.
• Serve each piece with about a tsp of sour cream on top and sprinkled with the chopped scallions and bell peppers.

SPICY AVOCADO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Stir 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl; rub evenly into the chicken breasts.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook the chicken in the heated oil until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Stir the onion, lime juice, and avocado together in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spoon over the chicken breasts to serve.
