Everybody MUST try this salad! We just had it for dinner with a baguette and it was so delicious!
1 head leaf lettuce
2 ripe mangoes, cut in chunks
2-3 ripe avocados, cut in chunks
1 small red onion, sliced thinly
And THIS chicken:
2 lbs chicken thighs or breasts
2 tsp oil
Glaze:
1/2 c honey
1 Tbsp cider vinegar
Rub:
2 tsp granulated garlic
2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp coriander (I didn't have this)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder
Combine rub ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle oil over chicken and rub it in. Rub the spice rub into the chicken. Grill for 3-5 minutes. (I didn't grill the chicken this time - just cut it into chunks and mixed all the spices onto the chunks then cooked in a frying pan. Still delicious!) For the glaze, microwave honey for about 15 seconds. Whisk in vinegar. Reserve 2 Tbsp and brush the rest on the chicken the final moments of cooking. Remove chicken from grill. Allow to stand 3-5 minutes. Drizzle the 2 Tbsp glaze on the chicken while it's standing. (I didn't really do the glaze, but just put some honey on the chicken as it was finishing up cooking in the frying pan.)
And here's a dressing (or you can just use a poppyseed or some sweet dressing):
1 garlic clove, minced
1 1/2 tsp grated onion
1/3 c fresh orange juice
3 Tbsp fresh lime juice
2 Tbsp honey
3/4 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 c oil
Combine in a jar and shake well.
So, that seems like a lot, but it's really easy and VERY good!
