  • 1/3 cup diced mango
  • 1/4 avocado, diced
  • 1 cup chopped romaine
  • 1/3 cup diced plum tomato
  • 1 teaspoon oil

Instructions:

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F. Rub the chicken with oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and a small amount of salt.
  2. Roast until the chicken reaches at least 165°F in the thickest part without touching bone, then rest for 5 minutes.
  3. While the chicken rests, combine mango, avocado, romaine, and tomato. Toss with vinegar, black pepper, a pinch of cumin, and a tiny amount of salt.
  4. Serve the warm spiced chicken with the cool mango-avocado salad alongside.
