Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Add the olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and Primal Palate Adobo Seasoning to a small mason jar, and shake to combine.
- Butterfly the chicken breasts so that they cook faster on the grill. Place the chicken breasts in a container or ziplock back to marinate, and pour the marinade over the chicken, being sure all of the chicken is covered.
- Seal the bag, or cover the container, and place the chicken in the fridge to marinate for 2 hours.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the diced cucumber, diced red bell pepper, back beans that have been drained and rinsed, corn, diced red onion, scallions, and cilantro.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the veggies, and squeeze the lime juice over the veggies. Season with the salt and black pepper, and toss the mixture to evenly combine.
- If you are preparing the veggies ahead of time, cover the bowl, and place in the fridge until serving.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, and remove the chicken from the fridge in preparation for grilling.
- Grill the chicken breasts over medium-high heat, flipping as needed, until the chicken reads 165 F.
- Allow the chicken to cool, chop into bite size pieces, and stir into the veggie mixture.
- Serve with tortilla chips or over a bed of greens.
