lime grilled chicken with fruit salsa

a really easy meal that looks pretty on the plate!
1/2 cup fresh lime juice ( I use Nellie & Joe's key west lime juice)
1/4 cup oil
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp rosemary
1 garlic clove minced
4 boneless skinless chkn breasts
in a bowl combine marinade ingredients, marinate chkn in marinade for 1-2 hours ( longer the lime juice will start to cook the chkn) broil or grill approx 4 minutes each side until chkn cooked through.
while chicken is marinating make the fruit salsa. I use whatever I have on hand for fruit. choose what you have

2 cups of chopped kiwi, fresh or caned pineapple,canned mandarin oranges, nectarines,peaches, or melon
3 tbsp green onion or red onion finely chopped
3 tbsp chopped cilantro if you have on hand
2tbsp apple cider vinegar
pinch of sugar
pinch red pepper flakes
dash of salt and pepper
combine ingredients in bowl and refrigerate until chkn is cooked
serve with rice and salad or your choice of vegetable!
