Chili Rubbed Chicken with Mango Salsa
I decided it was high time we got back out on the grill. It has been so humid, I didn't want to even send my hubby out to do my grilling...he would have melted! This chicken turned out great, has a good kick of spice and balanced with yummy mangos. Lets just say that this salsa rocks! I ate the leftovers with a spoon for a snack later on. On not to mention this is dang good for you...always a bonus. And the yummy corn in the picture...recipe for that is soon coming :)
Chili Rubbed Chicken with Mango Salsa
From: Mmm Cafe
Rub
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to an even thickness
1 Tbs. olive oil
1 Tbs. chile powder
1 tsp. dried oregano
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. onion powder
Salsa
2 ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and diced
1 Tbs. chopped fresh mint (I used cilantro...delicious!)
1 Tbs. minced onion
2 tsp. seeded and minced jalepeno pepper
2 Tbs. fresh lime juice
Grated zest of 1 lime
Toss chicken breasts with olive oil to coat. Combine all spices and rub over both sides of the chicken. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Grill chicken, turning once, just until charred on both sides.
To make salsa, combine all ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
