Ginger-Lime Chicken Teriyaki with Orange Salad

Ginger-Lime Chicken Teriyaki with Orange Salad

2 oranges, peeled and sectioned
2 T. finely chopped red onion
2 T. chopped scallions
1 tsp. chopped fresh cilantro
2 T. freshly grated ginger
2 T. fresh lime juice
1 tsp. rice vinegar
1/4 C. light brown sugar
2 T. olive oil
1/3 C. tamari
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

To make the orange salad, combine the oranges, red onion, scallions and cilantro in a mixing bowl and toss to combine. (This can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve.) In a small bowl, whisk the ginger, lime juice, rice vinegar, brown sugar, olive oil and tamari together. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow container. Pour the ginger-lime mixture over the chicken and toss to coat evenly. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Preheat the grill or broiler to medium-high. Cook the chicken, turning once, for about 6 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through. Serve the chicken with a large dollop of orange salad.
