Grilled Chicken with Avocado Salsa Recipe

Grilled Chicken with Avocado Salsa
I love grilled chicken but it is even better when you add the delicious flavor of avocado salsa. This is a healthy and easy to prepare recipe for summer. The chicken is marinated in ingredients such as lime juice, pineapple juice and cilantro. A bit more flavors comes from cumin and garlic. The salsa is a combination of pineapple, avocado, and red onion. I like to serve this chicken with wild rice on the side. Enjoy.
