Creating Grilled California Avocado Chicken is a straightforward process if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well coated. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C).
4. Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken on the grill. Grill for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
5. Prepare the Avocados: While the chicken is grilling, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash lightly with a fork, adding a pinch of salt and lime juice for flavor.
6. Assemble the Dish: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Top each chicken breast with a generous scoop of the mashed avocado.
7. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top for added color and flavor.
8. Serve: Serve the chicken warm with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
