Ingredients

2 jalapeño peppers, 1 sliced, 1 minced

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

Salt and pepper to taste

1 naval orange, peeled, sectioned and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

1 small grapefruit, peeled, sectioned and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

4 green onions, thinly sliced

10 red cherry tomatoes, seeded and diced

Zest of 1/2 orange

Zest of 1/2 lime

4 handfuls mixed greens

Directions

COMBINE jalapeño slices in a shallow bowl with ¼ cup each of the lime juice and olive oil. Rub chicken with salt and pepper, and add to the jalapeño marinade.

MARINATE in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. In a medium-size bowl, combine orange, grapefruit, green onions, tomatoes, remaining tablespoon each of lime juice and olive oil, zests, salt, pepper and minced jalapeño. Set aside.

REMOVE chicken from marinade. Cook in greased, hot cast iron grill pan for 5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove and let stand 5 minutes. Divide greens among four plates.

SLICE chicken and arrange it on top of greens. Spoon salsa over each salad and serve immediately.

Straighten up your crown, possumqueen - I'd give this a "5" just based on your picture...looks delish and every bit worthy of a queen (or her minions, such as myself) - this one is a "fer sure" for me!

I only used 2 breast-es-es and I let them marinate overnight - sooooo good. I also used a finely diced white onion because I wanted a little more kick. Oh - I'd also make the salsa first to give all of the flavors of the ingredients time to 'marry' and maybe I'd chill it as well.
