Ingredients | Mango Avocado Salsa Recipe

1 teaspoon cumin seed

3 cloves garlic, chopped

1 fresh red chile pepper, chopped

¼ teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

5 teaspoons orange juice

5 teaspoons lemon juice

2 (8 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

2 tablespoons olive oil

½ cup orange juice

1 teaspoon lime zest

1 teaspoon honey

1 teaspoon sweet soy sauce

¼ cup cold, unsalted butter, cut into pieces

½ cup diced mango

½ avocado

chopped fresh cilantro to taste

chopped fresh parsley to taste

Directions

Toast the cumin seeds in a dry skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Place the cumin seeds, garlic, chile pepper, salt, olive oil, orange juice, and lemon juice into the bowl of a blender; grind to a coarse paste. Toss the chicken with the marinade, then place into the refrigerator, and allow to marinate for about 2 1/2 hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until browned. Place into the oven, and cook until the juices run clear, about 8 minutes. When the chicken is done, remove, cover with foil, and allow to rest for 3 to 5 minutes.

While the chicken is in the oven, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, lime zest, honey, and soy sauce in a skillet over medium-high heat. Simmer until the orange juice has reduced to 1/3 of original volume and is beginning to get thick and syrupy. Once thick, remove from heat, and whisk in the butter pieces one at a time until melted; set aside.

To serve, place chicken on the plate and sprinkle with mango and avocado. Drizzle with the sauce, and garnish with cilantro and parsley.
