Recipe: Grilled Chicken Breasts with Mango Salsa

Main Dishes - Chicken, Poultry
GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MANGO SALSA

1/2 cup canola oil
Grated zest and juice of 1 orange
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
Granted zest and juice of 1 lime
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (5 to 6 ounces each)
Salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
Mango salsa (recipe follows)

In a shallow glass, ceramic or other nonreactive dish, combine the oil, citrus zests and juices, garlic and jalapeno. Mix well. Add the chicken and turn once or twice to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and no longer than 6 hours.

WHEN READY TO COOK:
Prepare a charcoal or gas grill so that the coals or heating elements are medium hot. Off the heat, lightly spray the grate with vegetable oil spray.

Lift the chicken breasts from the marinade, letting any excess drip back into the dish. Discard marinade. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until chicken is cooked through.

Serve with Mango Salsa on top or side.

MANGO SALSA
Makes about 2 cups

1 ripe mango
3 tablespoons chopped red onion
2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chopped jalapeno pepper (about 3/4 of a jalapeno)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Slice both ends from the mango to determine where seed is located. Peel skin from the mango with a sharp knife or peeler. Cut the fleshy "cheeks" from each side of mango by cutting almost in half lengthwise along the side of the seed. Trim around the mango, following the curve of the seed to remove remaining flesh from the other sides. Dice mango and put in medium bowl. Add onion, cilantro, lime juice, oil, jalapeno, salt and pepper and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Makes 4 servings
