1 T. olive oil
4 tsp. rice wine vinegar

chicken breasts (2-4 depending on size)
soy sauce or teriyaki sauce

4 oz. Monterrey jack cheese, grated
tortilla chips
lettuce, chopped
ranch dressing (poppyseed is also good)

Directions:
Marinate chicken breasts in soy sauce or teriyaki sauce. Mix first nine ingredients in a large bowl to make the salsa, then refrigerate. Grill or broil chicken, then cut into strips.

Why is it called Chicken mango salad. I detect a distinct lack of mangos in the ingredient list.

Now that would have been a glaring error, if I really had left out the mango, but I believe it is 7th on the list of ingredients. And the dish really wouldn't be the same without it.

You're my recipe hero Harmony, thanks! We had so much fun visiting with you guys. When we finally move to Utah we'll have to hang out more often.
