For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the salsa. If you prefer grilling, grill the marinated chicken over medium heat for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Serve with a side of coconut rice or quinoa for a complete and satisfying meal. The fruit salsa can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
