Directions
- For salsa: In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, the cumin, salt, and pepper. Add avocado, papaya, sweet pepper, and cilantro; toss together. Set aside.
- Lightly sprinkle both sides of the chicken with blackened steak seasoning.
- In a large ovenproof skillet, brown the chicken on both sides in the 1 tablespoon hot olive oil, turning once. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for about 15 minutes or until the chicken no longer is pink. Don't turn. (Or omit the browning and place the chicken in an 8x8x2-inch [2-quart square] baking dish brushed with olive oil. Bake in 375 degree F oven 15 to 20 minutes or till the chicken no longer is pink.)
- To serve, spoon some of the salsa over the chicken. Pass the remaining salsa or serve it with chips, if you like.
