Zucchini Noodles with Cilantro Lime Chicken
Serves 4
Prep Time: 25 minutes/Total time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
3 medium zucchini (about 1 1/2 pounds) (I used 7 small ones)
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1" pieces
1/2 teaspoon cumin (I used 1 tsp. cumin)
1 teaspoon sea salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup cherry tomatoes (I diced up 5 roma tomatoes)
2 teaspoons seeded, minced jalapeno (I just use one large jalapeno chopped fine/no seeds)
juice of 1 medium or 1/2 large lime
3/4 cup cilantro, chopped
Directions:
Using a spiralizer or mandolin, make zucchini noodles and set them aside. (You can also slice the zucchini thinly if you don't have the gadgets for making zucchini noodles)
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and the chicken. Cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Add the cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and the ground black pepper, Cook and stir 1 more minute. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Return the skillet to the stove on medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, zucchini noodles, tomatoes, jalapenos and cilantro and lime juice. Saute for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and add the cooked chicken. Stir gently and serve hot.
