Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 oz each)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup plain 2% Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons water
1 avocado, pitted, peeled
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 bunch cilantro leaves (about 2 cups)
3 to 4 tablespoons water
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F.
  • Pat chicken dry. In medium bowl, toss Spice-Dusted Chicken ingredients until chicken is evenly coated.

Sear chicken in skillet, top side down, 4 to 5 minutes, until browned and easy to turn, then turn over and immediately transfer skillet to oven. Roast chicken 15 to 20 minutes or until instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken reads 165°F.
  • Meanwhile, in blender or food processor, add Creamy Avocado Sauce ingredients. Cover; blend on high speed until completely smooth; adding additional water 1 tablespoon at a time until sauce is desired consistency. Set aside.
  • Serve each chicken breast with rice and sauce. Sprinkle with cilantro.
