Citrus Avocado Salad: You can add a variety of fruits like mango or pomegranate for a sweeter twist. For more texture, toss in some toasted almonds or walnuts.
Grilled Chicken Skewers: Swap the chicken for shrimp or tofu to cater to different dietary preferences. You can also change the marinade to a spicy one by adding paprika or chili flakes.
FAQ:
1. Can I make these recipes in advance? Yes! The grilled chicken skewers can be marinated and stored in the fridge up to 24 hours before grilling. However, the citrus avocado salad is best made fresh to avoid the avocado browning.
2. What can I serve alongside these recipes? Both dishes pair wonderfully with light sides such as quinoa, couscous, or a simple garden salad. You can also complement them with a chilled beverage like iced tea or a sparkling water with lime.
3. Can I cook the skewers in the oven instead of grilling? Absolutely! If you don’t have access to a grill, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the skewers on a baking sheet for about 15-18 minutes, flipping halfway through.
