Notes
Storage
- Refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Microwave at 1-minute intervals until heated through.
- Since the chicken is sliced into strips, it's best to grill them on low heat to keep them moist.
- Dice your avocados just before you're ready to make the bowls to prevent browning.
- The longer you marinate the chicken, the more tender it will be.
- You shouldn't marinate the chicken longer than 24 hours, or it will get mushy.
