Grilled Chipotle Lime Chicken Skewers with Creamy Avocado Sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Flatten the chicken breasts to 1/4-inch thickness and cut lengthwise into 16 strips. In a large bowl, combine the lime juice, balsamic vinegar, minced chipotle pepper, and salt. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine the avocado, fat-free sour cream, minced cilantro, lime juice, and lime zest. Process until blended. Transfer the avocado sauce to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. 3

    Drain the chicken, discarding the marinade. Thread the chicken strips onto 4 metal or soaked wooden skewers. Grill the skewers over medium heat, or broil 4 inches from the heat, for 8-12 minutes, turning frequently, until the chicken is no longer pink. Serve the grilled chicken skewers with the creamy avocado sauce.
