Cumin Chicken & Avocado Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
    1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
    4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    14 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved if large
    1 red onion, finely chopped
    4 gem lettuce, separated into leaves
    1 ounce cilantro
    3 Hass avocadoes, peeled and thickly sliced
    6 tablespoons caesar salad dressing (ready-made dressing is fine)
    14 ounces red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
Preparation
    Mix the oil and spices in a large bowl, then use the mixture to coat the chicken.
    Pan-fry the chicken (without extra oil) in a large non-stick frying pan for a few mins each side.
    Toss the tomatoes into any spiced oil left in the bowl, then add them to the pan.
    Cover and cook for 5 mins more until the chicken is cooked and the tomatoes are warm and starting to soften.
    Meanwhile, toss the onion, lettuce, cilantro and avocados in the Caesar dressing and pile onto a large platter.
    Top with small handfuls of the beans and scatter with the tomatoes.
    Slice the warm chicken and pile on top.
    Serve with crusty bread or crunchy tortilla chips.
