Bird of Paradise Recipe
This zesty chicken dish made with Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend™ and tangy orange, pineapple, pepper salsa lives up to its name!
Ingredients:
- 1 (8 Oz.) (225g) can low sodium Italian style tomato sauce
- 3 Tbsp. (45mL) Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend™
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 2 lbs (908g)
- 1 (15 Oz.) (420g) can mandarin oranges in light syrup, drained
- 1 (14 Oz.) (392g) can zesty tomatoes with jalapeno, drained
- 1 (8 Oz.) (225g) can pineapple bits in juice, drained
- 1/2 chopped red bell pepper
Directions:
- Mix the tomato sauce and 2 Tbsp. (30mL) of the Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend™ in a big zippered bag. Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade to use as a baste.
- Slip the chicken into the bag, seal and refrigerate for a few hours (or overnight for more flavor).
- Before grilling, combine everything else in a bowl and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to blend flavors.
- Fire up the grill - preferably charcoal - to medium.
- Remove chicken from bag and sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbsp. (15mL) Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend™.
- Grill the chicken, turning and basting with reserved marinade a few times, about 10 minutes. It's done when no longer pink in center of thickest part and juices run clear (about 160°F on an instant read thermometer).
- Serve with the orange-pineapple salsa.
