Today’s Unique Recipe: Cinnamon-Spiced Chicken with Pineapple Salsa

Hey everyone! Today, I am excited to share with you a unique and flavorful recipe for Cinnamon-Spiced Chicken with Pineapple Salsa. This dish is perfect for those looking to add a little twist to their usual chicken dinner. The combination of warm cinnamon spice with the freshness of pineapple salsa is truly a match made in heaven. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

  • boneless, skinless chicken breasts (500g)
  • cinnamon powder (1 tbsp)
  • garlic powder (1 tsp)
  • salt (1 tsp)
  • pepper (1/2 tsp)
  • olive oil (2 tbsp)
  • fresh pineapple, diced (200g)
  • red onion, diced (100g)
  • jalapeno, diced (1)
  • fresh cilantro, chopped (30g)
  • lime juice (2 tbsp)

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife/li>
  • cutting board
  • grill pan
  • mixing bowl

To start, mix the cinnamon powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. Heat olive oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through and nicely charred. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, and lime juice to make the salsa. Season with a pinch of salt.

Slice the cooked chicken and serve it with a generous spoonful of pineapple salsa on top. The warm, spiced chicken with the fresh, tangy salsa is truly a flavor explosion in every bite.

This dish weighs approximately 820g in total and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 205g and is approximately 300 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken in the cinnamon spice mixture for a few hours before cooking. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful dish.

I hope you give this Cinnamon-Spiced Chicken with Pineapple Salsa a try! Feel free to customize it with your favorite spices or additional ingredients. Enjoy!
