Steps:
- Measure and add the olive oil, garlic, citrus zest and juice and spices in a bowl, whisking well to combine. Add in the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate for not longer than 25 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile preheat your grill to 400and prepare the salsa.
- Grill the chicken until no longer pink. Depending on if you're using a grill pan or an outdoor grill will depend on how long. I would preheat your outdoor gill to 400 to 450° and if you're using a grill pan, preheat to medium to medium-high. Allow the chicken to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
- In a medium bowl combine the mango, onion, hot pepper and cilantro. Season with a few small pinches of kosher salt before tossing to combine.
- Top chicken with salsa and enjoy!
