Beyond “chicken” I didn’t have a clue what I was going to make for dinner tonight. We enjoy chicken for dinner, but grilling it tends to get a bit boring. I was in a “tex-mex” kind of mood tonight, and came up with this creation. I didn’t do a lot of measuring when I made it. You can season the salsa to your taste.
