LIME CHICKEN WITH BLACKBERRY SALSA



Lime Chicken with Blackberry Salsa image

I invented this recipe in a hurry one night and was over-the-top thrilled with how it came out! I've since served it to company; it always gets rave reviews. I love that it's so easy, and so healthy for my family, too. You can use grilled chicken instead of baked, if you like, and the spice level is up to you! If you like more kick in your food, use the whole 2T of red pepper flakes. Otherwise, start with 1T and adjust to taste. -Joni Hilton, Rocklin, California
