Number Of Ingredients 14

4 boneless, skinless chicken cutlets (each 8 ounces)
4 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 ears corn, husked
2 teaspoons seeded, finely chopped, fresh red, hot chiles (such as cayenne or jalapeno)
2 tablespoons peeled, minced fresh ginger
1/2 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 medium red onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
10 cherry tomatoes, quartered
2 ripe Hass avocados, halved, pitted, peeled, and diced
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
4 ounces baby arugula

Steps:

  • Combine chicken with 2 tablespoons each oil and lemon juice. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 3).
  • Stand an ear of corn on one end, and using a serrated knife, cut off kernels; repeat (you should have 1 cup total).
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add corn, chiles, and ginger, and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool.
  • Preheat grill to medium. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 5 to 6 seconds.) Grill chicken, flipping once, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from heat.
  • Stir together beans, onion, corn mixture, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon oil. Add tomatoes and avocados. Season with salt and pepper, and stir gently to combine.
  • Toss arugula with remaining 2 teaspoons each oil and lemon juice.
  • Divide arugula among plates, and top with chicken and avocado-corn salsa.

Time 38m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 turkey or chicken cutlets (each about 4-6 ounces)

1/4 cup lightly packed cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk the mustard and vinegar in a large bowl, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Gradually whisk in the olive oil. Season the cutlets with some salt and pepper and put in a large non-reactive glass or ceramic bowl. Pour about a 1/4 cup of the dressing over the cutlets and turn to coat evenly. Cover and marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature, or in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours.
