  • ½ tsp red chili powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 2 – 3 limes
  • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
  • ½ jar medium salsa
  • ¼ cup finely chopped cilantro

Squeeze limes over the chicken breasts. Season both sides of each breast with chili powder, salt, cumin, and ginger. Allow the chicken to rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Bring a skillet to high heat and brown the chicken breasts on each side in batches (about 5 to 8 minutes per side). After the meat has cooked through, remove the breasts and cut them into strips.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet on high heat. Carefully transfer the steak to the skillet and brown both sides (approximately 3 minutes per side).

Trim and remove strings. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet on MEDIUM-HIGH heat. Sauté the shallots until they are tender. Remove the shallots. Turn the heat to HIGH.
