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!
