Ingredients

00:20 - How to make a mojo marinade

1 Place the chicken breasts into a shallow dish.

2 00:20 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together lemon juice, orange juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, and salt. Set aside half of this mixture to use as a salad dressing, and pour the remaining half over the chicken breasts.

3 00:56 - Let chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

4 01:06 - In a small mixing bowl, combine sliced red onion and sliced jalapeno. Pour red wine vinegar over. Toss together and set aside until ready to serve.

5 01:47 - Heat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (375-450 degrees F). Grill chicken breasts for about 4 minutes per side, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Slice.

6 02:25 - While chicken is resting, grill bell peppers for 2 minutes.

7 02:34 - Compile salad on a bed of mixed salad greens topped with fresh cilantro leaves, red onions, jalapenos, sliced avocado, and sliced chicken. Serve drizzled with the reserved salad dressing.
