Grilled Chicken with Strawberry Salsa - 8.1g Carbs, 1.9g Fiber, 4.5g Sugar

From: Recipes by Zola by ArcaMax
 (SUPER EASY)

4 6 oz skinless chicken breast pieces
1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries
1 cup diced bell pepper (I chose red but you can choose your favorite or even a mixture)
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup lime juice
Grate of sea salt

To make the chicken cook faster I pounded the chicken flat. To do this I put it in a zip lock bag (you don't need to seal it) and then I use a meat mallet to pound it down to about 1/3" thick. It also makes you think you are getting more food because it takes longer to eat.

Spray your pounded chicken breasts and grill to your liking. You can grill outside or use a grill pan and do it in the house.

While the chicken is cooking you can make your salsa. Just put all of the ingredients in a bowl and stir. How simple!

Serve the salsa over hot chicken or cold. They both taste great. This is a really nice dish for a hot day.
