Ingredients
-
3 to 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
-
2 ripe mangoes, diced
-
1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
-
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
-
2 tablespoons honey
-
Juice of 2 limes
-
3 garlic cloves, minced
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
-
Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, making sure each piece is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
-
While the chicken marinates, prepare the mangoes and pineapple by cutting them into thick chunks.
-
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F, and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
-
Place the marinated chicken on the grill and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken is cooked through.
-
During the last few minutes of grilling, add the mango and pineapple chunks to the grill to get a nice char and caramelization.
-
Remove chicken and fruit from the grill. Let the chicken rest briefly before serving. Top with grilled mango and pineapple and garnish with fresh cilantro.
