Chicken with Mango Avocado Salsa






Wow- did the sweet & spicy flavors combine well together. The sweetness of the mango tamed the strong sriracha marinade to give it some flavor. Make sure you put oil on your grill so chicken does not stick!

Ingredients
12 ounces fresh chicken breast (about 3 small breasts)

Marinade
3 tbsp sriracha
juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp honey
pinch of garlic powder



Add together in small bowl.  Whisk to combine & set aside.

Salsa
2 cups mango , diced
1 cup avocado, diced
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, minced
juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp red onion, finely diced (optional)
salt & pepper to taste

2. In small bowl, add sriracha, lime juice, honey, & garlic powder.  Whisk to combine & set aside.
