A modest sodium, low fatrecipe.
Bird of Paradise
- 1 (8-ounce) (225g) can low sodium Italian style tomato sauce
3 tablespoons (45mL) Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 2 pounds (908g)
1 (15-ounce) (420g) can mandarin oranges in light syrup, drained
1 (14-ounce) (392g) can zesty tomatoes with jalapeno, drained
1 (8-ounce) (225g) can pineapple bits in juice, drained
1/2 chopped red bell pepper
- Mix the tomato sauce and 2 tablespoons (30mL) of the Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend in a big zippered bag. Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade to use as a baste.
- Slip the chicken into the bag, seal and refrigerate for a few hours (or overnight for more flavor).
- Before grilling, combine everything else in a bowl and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to blend flavors.
- Fire up the grill - preferably charcoal - to medium.
- Remove chicken from bag and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon (15mL) Mrs. Dash® Chicken Grilling Blend.
- Grill the chicken, turning and basting with reserved marinade a few times, about 10 minutes. It's done when no longer pink in center of thickest part and juices run clear (about 160°F on an instant read thermometer).
- Serve with the orange-pineapple salsa
