Makes 4 servings (serving size : 1 chicken breast half / about 1/2 cup salsa)

2 .................tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1-1/2 ..........tablespoons fresh lime juice
1-1/2 ..........tablespoons olive oil
4 ................(6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/4 .............teaspoon salt

2 ...............tablespoons finely chopped onion
2 ...............teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/4 ............teaspoon salt
1/8 ............teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 ...............avocado, peeled and finely chopped
1. To prepare chicken, combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; toss and let stand 3 minutes. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Sprinkle chicken evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add chicken to pan; cook 6 minutes on each side or until done.
2. To prepare salsa, combine tomato and next 4 ingredients (through pepper) in a medium bowl. Add avocado; stir gently to combine. Serve salsa over chicken.
TIP :
A three-minute dip into a pungent cilantro-lime marinade is all that's needed to deliver big flavor to chicken breasts. Serve with saffron rice.
