Breaded Chicken Cutlets with Deconstructed Guacamole

Breaded chicken cutlets cooked in a skillet topped with everything I normally add to my guacamole – sliced avocado, tomatoes, cilantro, red onion and lime juice. If I had some jalapeño I probably would have added a few slices on top as well.

This was one of those meals that came together by cleaning out my fridge. Don’t you love those nights? It almost makes me feel like I’m on Chopped, without the cameras, strange ingredients or time limit. I seasoned the chicken with some Latin spices and loved how this turned out. You could even serve it over some chopped lettuce to make it a big salad. Perfect for weeknight cooking, hope you enjoy!
