Ingredients

For the Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder

For the Mango Pineapple Glaze:

1/2 cup diced fresh mango
1/2 cup diced fresh pineapple
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp chili powder (optional for a little heat)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

Make the Glaze:

In a blender, combine mango, pineapple, honey, soy sauce, lime juice, chili powder, and garlic.
Blend until smooth.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a small saucepan and simmer the glaze for 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened.

Prepare the Chicken:

Rub chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Grill chicken for 5–7 minutes per side, brushing with the mango pineapple glaze during the last few minutes of cooking, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

To Serve:

Serve the chicken hot, drizzled with extra glaze.
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and lime wedges for a bright, zesty finish!
