This is an extra tasty dish. Instead of grilling, I dried the chicken breasts with a paper towel, then powered with flower. The chicken was simmered on the stove in Peanut oil on low heat, covered until done. The fruit salsa is awesome and it would be good served with rice !
Ingredients
- 1 (11-oz.) can mandarin orange segments, drained shopping list
- 1 (8-oz.) can crushed pineapple in unsweetened juice, drained shopping list
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice shopping list
- 1 tablespoon chopped, seeded jalapeño chile shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon salt shopping list
- Chicken: shopping list
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (I used peanut oil) shopping list
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon salt shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne) shopping list
How to make it
- Heat gas or charcoal grill. In medium bowl, combine all salsa ingredients; mix well. Set aside.
- Brush oil over all sides of chicken breast halves. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, the pepper and ground red pepper.
- When grill is heated, place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 10 to 12 minutes or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear, turning once. Serve salsa with chicken.

Mountainmama,
I love your recipes and who cares about anyone else.
I love that you put oranges in the chicken. This is odd, but I was just thinking about adding fresh orange pieces to seafood or poultry and wondering how it would taste. ...more
