Instructions
Heat the oil in a pan. Add the chicken breast and sprinkle with paprika powder, onion powder, and garlic powder. Cook until the chicken is slightly golden.
Add in chicken stock, mix it well and let it reduce on low-medium heat until all the liquid is gone and chicken is tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed, then sear the sliced bell pepper until tender. Remove from heat and set aside with the chicken.
Mash the avocado with a fork in a bowl. Mix in the chopped plum tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro (if using). Adjust the flavor with lime juice to your desired acidity level.
To assemble, start by placing a bed of salad mix or chopped lettuce leaves on each plate. Arrange the cooked chicken, seared bell pepper, diced tomato, and add guacamole on top. Add some cooked black rice or whole grain rice alongside.
Serve with Greek yogurt, lime wedges, fresh herbs and chili flakes to your liking.
