cold, lower cal lunches are becoming a staple in my diet for The Great Lock In and you can truly never go wrong with a southwestern-style anything when there’s a heap of cilantro in it

yields: 5 servings
course: lunch (or din, but very lunch vibe) main
prep time: 10 mins
cook time: 15 mins
total time: 25 mins
what you’ll need
- 1.5 lbs chicken breast
- salt & pep
- 1 cup nonfat greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup light mayo
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning (i used siete mild!)
- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1/2 cup fire-roasted corn (about half a can)
- 1/2 medium red onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
instructions
- Season top and bottom of chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Add the chicken to a large sauce pan, and cover with at least 1″ of water and bring to a boil (cursed i know, but its the best way to make shredded chicken).
- Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 15 minutes, or until internal temp reaches 165F.
- While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce mix: Add the greek yogurt, mayo, lime juice, and taco seasoning to a bowl and mix well. Fold in the black beans, tomatoes, corn, onion, and cilantro.
- When your chicken is done, shred it however you like to! Personally I toss them hoes in my precious KitchenAid and let it rip, but pulling it apart with 2 forks does the trick as well.
- Add the chicken to the mixture with the rest of the ingredients and mix well to combine and ensure everything is thoroughly coated.
- Enjoy! I like mine with tortilla chips :p
