Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 whole Lime
- 1 large Mango
- 1 whole Red bell pepper
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 1 whole Jalapeño
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the chicken. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in a shallow dish.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to create a marinade.
Step 3
Rub the marinade evenly over the chicken breasts. Set them aside to marinate while you prepare the salsa.
Step 4
For the mango salsa, begin by peeling and dicing the mango into small cubes. Transfer the mango cubes to a medium-sized bowl.
Step 5
Dice the red bell pepper and finely chop the red onion. Add these to the bowl with the mango.
Step 6
Chop the cilantro and finely dice the jalapeño, removing the seeds if you prefer less heat. Add both to the mango mixture.
Step 7
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the salsa ingredients, then add the 2 tablespoons of lime juice. Gently toss the salsa to combine all the ingredients. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
Step 8
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 9
Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is fully cooked with no pink inside.
Step 10
Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes.
Step 11
Serve the grilled chicken breasts topped generously with the mango salsa. Enjoy!
