Notes
What to Serve with the Salsa
This fruity salsa with a slightly spicy taste makes a great addition to grilled or sautéed chicken breasts. Pictured below is the pineapple salsa served with Caribbean Jerk Sauteed Chicken breasts. You can find the recipe for the chicken breasts here: Caribbean Jerk Chicken Breasts
It would be very tasty served with a basket of tortilla chips.
Blue Corn Chips are another option! They look so pretty with the salsa!
