Grill or bake your chicken breasts as you usually do, or you can rub your chicken in a mixture of salt, black pepper, cumin, and cayenne pepper before cooking. While the chicken is cooking you make this salsa. Take your chicken off the grill or out of the oven and top with the salsa while the chicken is still hot.

If you bake your chicken, after it’s done, take it out of the oven and put it in the pan that you made the sauce in so it coats the chicken breasts evenly.

You can start the sauce before you begin pan frying your chicken breasts, and then when the chicken is done, pour the sauce over the chicken breasts while they are still in the pan.

These easy and delicious sauces will make chicken breasts much more interesting and will make healthy eating much more enjoyable.
