GRILLED CHICKEN AND STRAWBERRY SALSA



Grilled Chicken and Strawberry Salsa image

Say hello to summer with this easy recipe full of bright, sweet, seasonal flavors and a touch of heat to inspire thoughts of warm weather!

Provided by Rachel Hanawalt

Categories     Entrees

Time 32m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3-4 chicken breasts
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/8 tsp salt
pepper to taste
2 C fresh chopped strawberries
1/2 C chopped avocado
1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
1/4 C chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp finely chopped red onion
3 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp lime zest
2 tsp honey
1/8 tsp salt

Steps:

  • Brush chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set them aside and allow them to come to room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat your grill and brush the grates clean.
  • Grill the chicken over direct medium heat (350º to 450ºF) about 8-12 minutes or when the internal temperature in the thickest part of the breast is 165ºF, turning once or twice. Keep the lid closed as much as possible.
  • While the chicken is cooking prepare the strawberry salsa. Simply prep all of the ingredients and gently stir them together in a bowl. This recipe has medium heat, so if you like mild salsa, omit the jalapeño. If you like hot salsa, chop in some of the seeds, but be careful! (I always wear gloves when cutting hot peppers.)
  • Once the chicken has finished grilling, top it with your fresh strawberry salsa and serve immediately.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup tequila
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 limes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 quart strawberries, diced
1 medium red onion, very finely diced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and very finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced (include some seeds for spice)
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
12 corn tortillas
Crumbled queso fresco or cotija cheese, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Put the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and add the oil, tequila, chili powder, cumin, the grated zest of both limes and some salt and pepper. Seal the bag and squish it all together. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  • While the chicken is marinating, make the salsa. Put the strawberries in a bowl along with the onions, bell peppers, jalapenos and most of the cilantro, reserving some for garnish. Add some salt and the juice of 1 of the limes. Mix it all together, cover and refrigerate.
  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the bag, shaking off any excess marinade. Grill until the chicken is well browned and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove and let rest on a plate. When just cool enough to handle, shred the chicken with a fork.
  • To serve: remove the salsa from the fridge, taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice. Heat the tortillas over a flame or in a microwave and keep warm. Fill a tortilla with some of the shredded chicken and top with some salsa. Serve topped with extra cilantro and the cheese, if using. Cut some wedges from the remaining lime to serve on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts. Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Marinate the chicken breasts. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, or you can try a more complex marinade with ingredients like yogurt, honey, and spices.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. This will help to sear the chicken breasts and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
  • Cook the chicken breasts for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. You can check the chicken breasts by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. The chicken is cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the chicken.
  • Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.

Conclusion:

Grilled chicken breasts with fresh strawberry salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for summer. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the salsa is refreshing and sweet. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
