Grilled Lime Chicken
- 6 medium chicken breast
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 whole lime juiced
- 1 1/2 tsp Tajin Seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Mango Pineapple Salsa
- 1 1/2 cup Mango diced
- 3 1/2 cups pineapple diced
- 1 whole lime juiced
- 1 small red onion diced
- 3 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 3/4 tsp Tiajin seasoning

Chicken and Marinade
In a small bowl, add the olive oil, lime juice, Tajin and garlic powder. Whisk together until combined well.
In a gallon size zip-lock bag, add 6 chicken breast along with the lime marinade. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator 6 hours or overnight for best results.
Get the grill ready by spraying with compliant cooking spray. Turn on to 400°F. If you are using a grill pan, turn to medium/high heat.
Remove the zip-lock bag from the fridge and remove the chicken from the marinade.
Add the chicken to the grill and cook for 7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165F.
Mango Pineapple Salsa
Dice 3 1/2 cups of pineapple, 1 1/2 cups of mango, 1/4 cup of red onion and add to a medium size bowl.
Next, add the juice of 1 lime along with the seasoning (1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and 3/4 tsp Tajin).
Clean and rough chop 3 tbsp of fresh cilantro and transfer to the mixture.
Finally, combine everything together with a spoon and serve. Will last up to 4 week if stored in air-tight container.
