Ingredients

• ¼ cup lime juice
• 2 Tbsp Watermelon Mint balsamic vinegar
• 1 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce, or tamari
• 1 ½ Tbsp honey
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp grated garlic
• Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
• 1 ¼ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 3 cups diced watermelon
• ¼ cup diced red onion
• 1 jalapeño seeded and minced
• 2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
• 2 Tbsp lime juice
• Kosher salt to taste

Directions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, cumin, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour the marinade into a resealable freezer bag along with the chicken. Squeeze the air out of the bag and seal it. Massage the marinade into the chicken and refrigerate for two hours.
2. Preheat your grill to 400°F. Spray the grates with oil and place the chicken on them. Grill for 6–8 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 160–165°F. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before cutting it.
3. While the chicken is grilling, you can make the salsa. Combine the watermelon, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro and line juice in a bowl. Season with salt and taste. Adjust as needed. Serve on top or alongside the grilled chicken.
