Ingredients
- 4 boneless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (plus 1 tablespoon for the salsa)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 ripe mango, diced
- 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 jalapeño, minced (optional for a kick)
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Whisk together the honey, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
- Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and let them soak for at least 30 minutes for maximum flavor infusion.
- Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat.
- Grill or bake the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and the juices run clear.

Notes
