Instructions
0 Marinade the [wprm-ingredient text="4 chicken breasts" uid="0"] in a large ziplock bag by adding the chicken, [wprm-ingredient text="1 tbsp oil" uid="1"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 tsp salt & 1/2 tsp pepper" uid="2"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 tbsp chili powder" uid="3"], [wprm-ingredient text="¼ c orange juice or juice from 1 orange" uid="4"]. Seal and squeeze the bag to mix everything. Leave this in the fridge for 15 minutes or up to 24 hours. 2 Make rice as you normally would but instead of water, use half salsa and half bone broth. 3 Make the kale by preheating the oven to 375 degrees. Toss the [wprm-ingredient text="1 head of kale" uid="6"] with the [wprm-ingredient text="1 tbsp oil" uid="8"], [wprm-ingredient text="¼ tsp salt and pepper" uid="9"]. Spread the leaves into a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10ish minutes but watch closely so it doesn’t burn. Remove and let it cool - it’ll continue to crisp up as it cools. 6 Make the pickled onions by mixing the [wprm-ingredient text="½ red onion sliced thinly" uid="11"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup water" uid="12"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup white vinegar" uid="13"], [wprm-ingredient text="1 tsp honey" uid="14"], and [wprm-ingredient text="¼ tsp salt" uid="15"] in a glass jar or bowl. Store in the fridge until ready to use. 8 Grill the chicken: Take it out of the bag, discard excess marinade and grill for 5-8 minutes per side. Check that it’s reached an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees before removing it, and then let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. You can also bake it in the oven at 425 degrees for 15-25 minutes (depending on how large or thick the chicken breast is) 12 Plate the chicken, kale, and onions with white rice, pinto beans, wuite queso, and chipotle sauce and enjoy!View original recipe
