  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
– 1/4 cup honey
– 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
– 1/2 red onion, diced
– 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
– 1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
– 1 lime, cut into wedges (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Honey Lime Chicken with Mango Salsa is a straightforward process if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.
3. Prepare the Salsa: While the chicken is marinating, combine diced mango, red onion, jalapeño (if using), and cilantro in a bowl. Squeeze lime juice over the mixture and toss gently. Set aside.
4. Preheat Grill: Heat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
5. Cook Chicken: Remove chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
6. Check Doneness: The chicken is done when its internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
7. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
8. Serve: Slice the chicken and top each serving with a generous portion of mango salsa. Garnish with lime wedges for an added zesty kick.
