Having coached thousands of clients on nutrition and wellness over the past 12 years, I always come back to salsa verde chicken as a favorite. It’s simple, nourishing, and incredibly easy to make in advance—it takes only about five minutes to prep, which is especially helpful for busy weeks. It’s also a perfect example of how a little planning can set you up for success. Doubling this recipe is highly encouraged so there are plenty of leftovers ready to go. It’s also kid-approved, which makes it a win for the whole family.

This is a protein-packed dinner that works beautifully in a variety of ways. It can be served over cauliflower rice, served over a bed of greens, or paired with Siete brand tortillas or taco shells for a gluten-free, grain-free, lighter, lower-carbohydrate meal. Or use any tortillas or taco shells you have. It also works well over traditional rice.
