Ingredients

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly sprinkle both sides of each chicken breast half with blackened steak seasoning. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add chicken; cook until browned, turning once. Bake about 15 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink (170°F).

Meanwhile, for salsa: In a large bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, the 2 tablespoons oil, the cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir in avocado, papaya, sweet pepper, and chopped cilantro. Serve salsa with chicken. If desired, garnish with cilantro sprigs.
