Spicy Grilled Chicken with Bean Salad
(and Cumin Vinaigrette)
Bean Salad Recipe adapted from All Recipes
Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 chicken breast fillets
Bayou Spice
For the salad:
½ cup cooked black beans
½ cup sweet corn
2 tomatoes, diced
¼ cup red onion, chopped
½ cup red bell pepper, chopped
½ cup cilantro
For the vinaigrette:
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup olive oil
¼ cup water
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
½ tablespoon salt
½ teaspoon Tabasco sauce
¼ teaspoon black pepper
Preparation:
- First, prepare your vinaigrette. In a small bowl combine the lemon juice, water, sugar, ground cumin, paprika, salt, pepper and Tabasco sauce. Add the oil in a slow steady stream while whisking. This is done to properly mix the vinegar and oil, so that the vinaigrette doesn’t separate.
- For the salad, in a medium sized bowl, mix together the beans, corn, tomatoes, red onions, red bell peppers and cilantro. Add vinaigrette, just to coat; don’t make a pool with it.
- Heat your grill. Cover the chicken breast with bayou spice, on both sides. Grill for about 5-8 min until browned.
- Serve with rice.
Note:
- I would also suggest you serve some avocado on the side.
