Grilled Chicken Breasts with Corn Salsa (raw salsa)

I love love love this salsa! Michael was lucky that there was some left over for his chicken! I really dislike cilantro and I still loved this salsa.

I made this for dinner a few weeks ago, (before Passover 🙂 ) I do not have a grill so I broiled the marinated chicken. The Salsa is so Delicious and totally Raw so it was a perfect dinner for me. Michael really enjoyed the chicken and salsa combo!

Here is a picture of the Salsa!! Mmmmmmmm!
