Directions
Marinade the chicken: Add all chicken and marinade ingredients to a large, resealable plastic bag. Close the bag and massage the marinade ingredients into the chicken. Refrigerate for one hour and no longer.
While the chicken is resting, make the salsa: stir together all salsa ingredients in a non-reactive bowl. Cover and chill until ready to use.
Preheat your grill to medium-high. Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess marinade. Place chicken on grill and cook for 10 minutes, flipping once in the middle of cooking. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes. Top with a scoop of salsa and serve.
