Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves

Brush the seasoned olive oil mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Step 3
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 4

While the chicken is grilling, prepare the blueberry basil salsa. In a mixing bowl, combine blueberries, finely chopped basil leaves, diced red onion, lime juice, and honey. Stir gently to avoid crushing the blueberries.
