Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken breast
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cups mixed salad greens
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium cucumber
• 1 large avocado
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 0.25 cup cilantro
• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon raw honey
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Begin by marinating the chicken breast. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and add to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Halve the cherry tomatoes, slice the cucumber, dice the avocado, thinly slice the red onion, and chop the cilantro.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, and honey to make the dressing.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and nicely browned.

Step 6

In each serving bowl, start with a base of mixed salad greens, then layer with cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, diced avocado, and red onion.

Step 7

Place the cooked chicken strips on top of the salad. Drizzle with the prepared dressing.

Step 8

Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and sesame seeds for garnish.

Step 9

Serve the Paleo Flavorful Chicken Bowl immediately and enjoy!
