Instructions
Salsa:
Place all the chopped ingredients into a bowl. Toss to mix thoroughly. Add the lime juice, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Toss the mixture again making sure all the ingredients are covered with the lime juice. Cover and set aside in the refrigerator. You can make this ahead and store it for a couple of days.
Chicken:
