I created this recipe after making too much chimichurri sauce (again) for a baked chicken dinner. I used what I had on hand, and it turned out to be a favorite for me and my partner! It’s super wholesome and can be a great lunch to take to work the next day!
Step: 1
Preheat the oven to 420 degrees F (215 degrees C).
Step: 2
Combine parsley, cilantro paste, olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Mix until smooth and place in fridge until chicken is ready.
Step: 3
Rub adobo, salt, and pepper on both sides of tenderloins.
Step: 4
Cook in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, about 25 minutes.
Step: 5
When chicken is almost finished baking, heat a saute pan over medium-low heat. Coat pan with olive oil and add onion and bell peppers. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step: 6
Remove chicken from the oven and let sit a few minutes to cool. Slice avocado and remove chimichurri sauce from fridge. When chicken has cooled, chop/shred chicken with 2 forks and mix with chimichurri. Place on spinach tortillas and top with veggies and avocado. Form wrap, slice in half, and enjoy!
