Ingredients
To whip up a Pollo Tropical-inspired meal at home, you’ll want to grab these ingredients:
- 1 whole chicken, marinated in citrus garlic sauce
- 2 cups of white rice
- 1 cup of black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup of grilled mixed vegetables (bell peppers, onions, zucchini)
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Lime wedges, for serving
Instructions
Alright, let’s get cooking!
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you don’t have a grill, you can bake the chicken in the oven at 375°F.
- Take that marinated chicken and place it on the grill. Let it sizzle for about 45 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches at least 165°F. Flip it halfway through to get that good char on both sides.
- While the chicken is grilling, bring a pot of water to a boil and add in your white rice. Cook according to the package instructions, usually about 20 minutes.
- For the black beans, you can heat them on the stove in a small pot. Just add a touch of salt and pepper for flavor.
- Now, toss those mixed vegetables on the grill for around 10 minutes, turning occasionally until they’re tender and have nice grill marks.
- Once everything is ready, plate it up! Start with a generous serving of rice, add the grilled chicken, then top it off with black beans and vegetables.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with a side of lime wedges for an extra zesty kick.
