Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds thin-sliced boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 ounces mango-pineapple salsa
  • 1/3 cup lime juice
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 large yellow bell pepper (sliced into 1/2-inch wide strips)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for peppers)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
  • 4 ounces additional mango-pineapple salsa (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup diced mango
  • 1/3 cup pineapple tidbits
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional for garnishing)

Instructions

  1. To a large ziptop plastic bag, add the chicken, salsa, lime juice, olive oil, and black pepper. Seal the bag tightly and smoosh around to evenly coat the chicken with marinade. Place the bag in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or overnight for optimal flavor.
  2. Lightly oil grill grates before preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
  3. Add sliced yellow bell peppers to a grill basket. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss well using grilling tongs to ensure even coating.
  4. Add marinated chicken to one side of the grill. Place the grill basket with peppers on the other side of the grill. Discard any remaining marinade from the bag. Grill chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side, closing lid after flipping until cooked through.
  5. While cooking, stir peppers occasionally until cooked as desired; they may finish slightly faster than chicken. Once done, place chicken on a large serving platter. Top each breast with additional salsa as desired, followed by diced mango and pineapple. Optionally sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving immediately.
