Ingredients 

MARINADE
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 tablespoon minced onion
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
CHICKEN
3 to 4 (1 pound) Gold'n Plump® Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
SALSA
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 kiwis, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 fresh mango, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 green onions (both green and white parts), coarsely chopped

Instructions 

Combine all marinade ingredients in a zip-seal plastic bag. Add chicken and seal bag. Refrigerate, turning bag occasionally, for at least 30 minutes or for up to 24 hours.

Up to 2 hours before serving, prepare salsa. Stir together lime zest, lime juice, and mustard in a medium bowl. Add kiwis, mango, and green onions; toss gently. Cover and refrigerate.

When you are ready to cook, prepare grill. Position grill rack about 6 inches above coals or heat source.

Remove salsa from refrigerator.

Remove chicken from bag and discard any leftover marinade

Place chicken on grill rack over glowing coals. Grill for about 6 to 7 minutes. Turn and grill for about 6 to 7 more minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked.

To serve, spoon salsa over chicken breasts.

Tips 

Mangoes may be green, orange, yellow or red; however, they should yield slightly to pressure when squeezed.
