Weight Watchers Salsa Lime Chicken

Prep time: 10 mins | Cook time: 15 mins
WW Points: Low to 0 Points (depending on your specific WW plan, as skinless chicken breast and salsa are zero-point foods!)

Chicken: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (pounded to even thickness)
The Marinade/Topping: 1 cup of your favorite chunky salsa (look for no added sugar)
Lime: Juice of 1 fresh lime
Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
Seasoning Mix:
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Garnish: Fresh cilantro, chopped

1. Marinate: In a bowl or a zip-top bag, combine the salsa, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Let it marinate in the fridge for at least 15–30 minutes.
2. Preheat: Heat a grill pan, outdoor grill, or a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly spray with a zero-calorie cooking spray.
3. Cook the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the extra salsa marinade). Grill the chicken for about 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. Warm the Salsa: While the chicken is cooking, pour the remaining salsa marinade into a small saucepan and bring it to a simmer for 3–4 minutes to ensure it is safe to eat.
5. Serve: Plate the chicken, spoon the warm salsa over the top, and garnish with fresh cilantro.

💡 WW Tip: You can top this with a tablespoon of fat-free sour cream or a sprinkle of reduced-fat cheddar cheese for just 1 extra point!
