This is a great summer salad. It's really easy to make, and kids love it. I like to stuff the salad into pitas and serve it like that, but it can stand alone as well.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
salt and pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1 lb boneless chicken breast
1 fresh mango, peeled and cubed
1 (16 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into thin strips
1/2 medium jicama, peeled and cut into thin sticks
1/2 head green leaf lettuce, washed, dried, and sliced
Directions:
1. Whisk lime juice, honey, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper. Drizzle in oil, whisking until thickened.
2. Place 1/4 c dressing in a shallow dish. Add chicken and marinate, covered, in fridge for 1 hour.
3. Heat grill to medium and oil rack. Grill Chicken for 6 minutes per side, until cooked through, or broil for 5 min per side.
4. Cool slightly, then cut into 1/2 -thick slices.
5. Put remaining ingredients and chicken into a bowl. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
6. Optional: Stuff salad into pitas and serve!
