Prepare to be blown away by a dish that's all about flavor, fun, and fantastic food moments. The star of the show? Grilled chicken that's so good, you'll be dreaming about it for days.
But wait, there's more! Enter the scene-stealing mango avocado salsa that's like a cool breeze on a hot day—it's the perfect partner in crime for that grilled goodness.
Let's talk teamwork: sweet mangos and ripe avocados, the dynamic duo that's here to prove opposites really do attract. These two tastes create a harmony that'll have your taste buds singing.
Now, let's talk chicken. This isn't your average bird. No, this chicken is marinated to perfection with a blend of flavors that's nothing short of magical. The marinade takes just minutes to come together—simple ingredients, a quick whisk, and you're on your way to flavor heaven.
And grilling this masterpiece? It's a breeze. The chicken hits the grill, and as it cooks, you'll brush it with a bit of that reserved marinade. The result? Juicy, tender, and packed with a punch of flavor that'll leave you wanting seconds, maybe even thirds.
So, here's the game plan: gather your ingredients, fire up the grill, and get ready to experience a dish that's a true celebration of taste and texture. Grilled chicken with a tasty mango avocado salsa—it's not just a recipe; it's a delicious adventure waiting to happen.
PREP: Trim the chicken breasts of fat and pound them to an even thickness to ensure even grilling. You can also slice them evenly in half widthwise for a quicker grill. Place the prepared chicken in a large resealable bag and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together three tablespoons of olive oil, lime juice and zest, cumin, chili powder, Tajin, minced garlic, honey, salt, pepper, and chopped cilantro. Reserve about 1/2 cup of marinade, and pour the rest into the resealable bag.
Marinate chicken for 30 minutes to an hour in the fridge. (However, you can marinate for up to 24 hours).
When the chicken is done marinating, take it out of the fridge and let it sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN
The instructions below are to grill the chicken. Lightly oil the grill grate or grill ridges on a grill pan or add 1 tablespoon oil to a skillet and then place the marinated chicken on the grill. Discard leftover marinade.
Grill for 10-12 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and internal temperature is at 165 degrees F. Flip the chicken halfway and brush it generously with the reserved 1/2 cup marinade.
MANGO AVOCADO SALSA
Mix ½ tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp lime juice, lime zest, 1 tsp garlic powder and mix together. Set aside.
(OPTIONAL: When grilling the chicken, also grill the mango. Brush with oil and grill on one side for about 4-5 minutes at medium-high heat.)
Chop the mango, tomatoes and avocado into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the red onion, cilantro and jalapeño, then add all chopped ingredients together and toss in lime juice & oil mixture. Season the salsa to taste with salt & pepper.
Recipe Note
Tip: I like to make a salsa before I start cooking my chicken in order to allow time for all the flavors to marinate together.
First time trying this collagen, and we are very pleased so far! It is a fine powder that blends easily whether stirred into yogurt or added to a smoothie in the blender. It has a little bit of an odor, but not offensive. Only recommendation is for longer handle on the scoop for when you get to the bottom of the container. We’ll definitely buy again!
Despite taking EPA, glucosamine and chondroitin supplements to manage knee pain and mobility issues. Adding this collagen to the mix has made the most significant difference. I can get a full 180d bend in my knees again and have no chronic pain. The real test will be when I put my running shoes back on. collagen to the mix has made the most significant difference.

I am 63 yo and have used this collagen for several months now with great results. My hair and nails are definitely stronger and I know I am doing something good for my body. My favorite product is the flavorless collagen which I put in my coffee. You can't even tell it is in there!
Both you women are wonderful and I love how you reach out to every customer. ❤️
Just made a smoothie with my vanilla collagen and organic blueberries, threw in a couple organic dates and it was delicious! So smooth and yummy!! Tastes like desert!
Easiest way to intake much needed collagen peptides. I have a scoop in each of my two cups of coffee every morning. Dissolves completely and is absolutely flavorless, and with no unnecessary additives, I’m glad I discovered Yonder!
Yonder grass fed collagen brought my protein level back up to a very healthy number. I use 2 small scoops of unflavored in my coffee every morning. Excellent result!
The short term effects have already been noticeable, with improved gut health. The collagen truly dissolves easily unlike many other brands and “fiavorless” truly is flavorless so I can mix it with any drink. Looking forward to seeing what this product does long term, and I’m sure I won’t be disappointed judging by my experience so far.
Just wanted to say, you know you have an amazing product when your 26 year old daughter puts the Chocolate Collagen on her Christmas wish list! Love, love love it! God Bless!
Started putting a scoop in my coffee daily, no need to even stir it when I pour both at the same time. Also, not a super noticeable taste difference (I drink my coffee black). Within a week, I noticed my nails were shinier, within two weeks I noticed my hair seemed healthier. My hair was the original reason for the purchase. Overall, I’m happy to have found a collagen treatment that is easy to incorporate and aligns with my values. Will order more and perhaps I’ll get a flavored one too?
