Grilled Turkey Or Chicken Cutlets With Black Bean Corn Tomato And Avocado Salsa Food

BLACK BEAN CORN SALSA WITH PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS AND CHICKEN

Steps:

• Saute mushrooms in 3 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, until wilted, about 5 minutes on medium heat. Combine salsa with mushrooms and cook until heated through. In a wok or saute pan saute chicken strips in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until cooked, about 5 to 6 minutes. Combine salsa and chicken and serve hot with a green salad and cornbread.

GRILLED AVOCADO WITH SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill on medium heat to 425 degrees F.
• Brush the inside of the avocado halves with the olive oil. Place the avocado halves cut-side down on the grill for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Turn the avocado halves 90 degrees to get cross grill marks and cook for another 1 minute and 30 seconds.
• Remove from the grill and season with salt and pepper. Put about 1 heaping tablespoon of salsa into the center well of each avocado half. Garnish with hot sauce and serve.

GRILLED CORN AND TOMATO SALSA SALAD

Steps:

• Start up grill, if using charcoal, or wait until corn is ready if using a gas grill. Or preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a small saucepan over a very low flame, reduce balsamic vinegar to 1 tablespoon, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Drizzle olive oil on corn and season with sea salt and pepper. Place on grill and cook until lightly browned. (Or roast in oven for 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes.) Remove, let cool and cut off kernels.
• Mix corn, tomatoes, scallion, parsley, red onion, and avocado. Season with reduced balsamic, olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Toss well.

SLOW COOKER BLACK BEAN AND CORN SALSA CHICKEN RECIPE

Steps:

• If making this into a freezer meal, label a gallon-sized resealable freezer bag with the title of the recipe and how to long to cook in the slow cooker. (If you aren't making it into a freezer meal, jump ahead to step #5).
• Dump the black beans, corn, salsa, taco seasoning, and water in the resealable bag and mix until all the ingredients are combined. Add the chicken breasts and zip the bag closed. Place in the freezer until ready to use (it will last in the freezer for up to 90 days).
• When ready to cook, remove bag from freezer and place in fridge overnight so that it can thaw. Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray and dump bag ingredients into the slow cooker. Cook on high for 4-5 hours or on low for 6-7 hours (until chicken is completely done).
• Shred meat and serve however you want (in tacos, burritos, nachos, salads, etc). Garnish with cheese, sour cream, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and hot sauce.
• If you aren't making this into a freezer meal, dump black beans, corn, taco seasoning, and water in crock pot and mix together until seasoning is dissolved. Place chicken breasts on top and spread salsa on chicken. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 5-6 hours. Shred chicken and serve however you want (in tacos, burritos, nachos, salads, etc). Garnish with cheese, sour cream, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and hot sauce.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND CORN

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high. In a medium bowl, coat the chicken with 2 tablespoons olive oil, the chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside. (You can do this step up to 1 day ahead; refrigerate and bring to room temperature before cooking.)
• On a large platter, layer the tomatoes, corn kernels, red onion and fresh oregano (if using). Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• When ready to grill, clean the grates with a grill brush, then lightly grease the grates. Grill the chicken until browned and cooked through, and it releases easily from the grates, 5 to 7 minutes per side. (If flare-ups occur, move the chicken to an area of the grill with smaller flames underneath. For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and peeking occasionally for flare-ups.)
• Transfer the chicken to the platter. Let rest for 5 to 20 minutes before serving.
