INSTRUCTIONS
CHICKEN
GUACAMOLE SAUCE
1. To prepare the chicken: Combine the lemon, olive oil, garlic, and chili
powder in a small jar; cover and shake to combine. Put the chicken into a
bowl, add the marinade and stir to coat the chicken. Marinate at room
temperature 30 minutes. (Or refrigerate for longer marination.)
2. To prepare the guacamole sauce: Peel and pit the avocados. Dice
coarsely, add the lemon juice and mash with a fork. Stir in the yogurt,
plum tomatoes, green onions, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, cilantro and
salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add
the chicken. (Don't crowd the pan; cook in 2 batches if necessary.) Cook
about 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. (Hold cooked chicken in
a warm oven while cooking the remaining chicken.)
4. Serve the chicken with the guacamole sauce on top.
