recipe ingredients
3 Tbsp. bottled jerk marinade
4 boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves
Honey-Orange Dressing:
2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp. honey
2 tsp. olive oil
Juice of 1/2 orange
1/4 tsp. salt
Lettuce leaves
2 ripe mangoes, peeled, sliced

recipe directions
In large glass bowl, spoon marinade over chicken; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour. Meanwhile prepare outdoor grill, George Foreman grill, or the oven broiler; coat rack with nonstick cooking spray. Grill or broil chicken breasts about 4 inches from heat until cooked through and liquids run clear
when meat is pierced. (Discard any remaining marinade.) Let chicken cool; cut into diagonal slices.
To make dressing, combine all ingredients in bowl or jar with tight-fitting lid; beat or shake vigorously until blended and thick. Arrange lettuce leaves on plates. Top with chicken, mango slices and onion rings. Drizzle with dressing.

I used white onions instead of red, sliced papaya instead of mango, and I added a little bit of Dijon mustard to the dressing to give it some kick. It turned out great–I would definitely make it again!
I have tried several recipes, and this by far has been the best, I make this recipe for family and friends at least twice a month……
