In the kitchen part 2

Caleb and I tried this recipe out last night; it was delicious!  And surprisingly quite simple!  I am all for quick dinner recipes as I dread spending hours in the kitchen.  We purchase the big ol' bags of boneless chicken breast at Aldi, it's not exactly 'quality' meat but it's inexpensive and lasts for awhile.  Needless to say, I get quite tired of chicken.  However, this recipe really spiced it up and added lots of wonderful flavors!

Grilled chicken with white peace salsa
2 servings

2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp chili powder or paprika (I used 1/4 tsp of chili powder and the other 1/4 paprika)
1 tsp minced fresh thyme (I used thyme off the spice rack)
1 peach - chopped finely
3 Tbsp red onion - chopped finely
2 Tbsp lime juice (I used 1 lime and squeezed about 3/4 of the lime juice for the salsa and the other 1/4 lime juice I added to our water so it mixed well with the meal).

Combine in bowl olive oil, chili powder, thyme, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper
Thaw chicken and place in a bowl, coating each side.
Grill chicken 

While chicken is on the grill, combine peaches, onion and lime juice together in a bowl.  Spoon salsa on top of the chicken or serve alongside.


Any leftover salsa could probably be eaten with tortilla chips.  We haven't tried it yet but I'm sure it would be tasty!

  1. Yummo! I bet that salsa will be awesome with tortilla chips! We had grilled salmon salads last night with yellow peaches & avocado. It was delicious. :)
