Preparation

    1) Preheat a grill pan between medium and medium high heat.

    2) Season your chicken breast with a couple Tbsp of oil and the taco seasoning (if you’re using homemade seasoning, add some salt as well, if using store bought seasoning, don’t add salt at this point)

    3) Place the chicken on the hot grill pan and let them cook for about 4 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through.

    4) Remove to a plate to cool slightly.

    5) Arrange the tomatoes, onion and avocado on top of the bed of lettuce, season slightly with salt and pepper and set aside.

    6) In a large measuring cup or just a bowl, add the lime juice, cilantro, salt and pepper and whisk in the olive oil.

    7) Drizzle the dressing all over the salad making sure you focus on the avocado.

    8) Slice your chicken and place on top. Serve immediately!
