Lime-Cilantro Chicken and Broccoli

Lime-Cilantro Chicken and Broccoli
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • ½ cup packed cilantro leaves
  • 1 cup unsalted cashews, dry-roasted, raw, or toasted
  • ¼ cup avocado oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon tamari
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, stemmed, seeded, and roughly chopped
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded thin (see tip below)
  • 1 large broccoli head, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 475°F.
  2. In a food processor, pulse all the marinade/dipping sauce ingredients to a pesto consistency. Reserve half to serve as a dipping sauce.
  3. Place the chicken on a parchment-lined baking sheet and coat it with the remaining marinade. Coat the broccoli with avocado oil, then spread it on the baking sheet with the chicken. Bake for 7 minutes, flip the chicken breasts and broccoli florets, and bake for 7 more minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli is lightly browned.
  4. Serve immediately with the dipping sauce.
