My rule of thumb is that all main course dishes need to have at least three contrasting colors in order to be visually pleasing and appetizing. This recipe for Chicken with Green Apple - Chipotle Salsa with Chipotle Chili Rub is bursting with color and fresh flavor! Easy, healthy, great as a hot dish, or in a sandwich, you will love this light and zesty recipe for all sorts of reasons!
The blend of sweet apple juice with tangy red wine vinegar makes the cilantro and bell pepper maintain their fresh, crisp texture. It's so good you can eat it all by itself!
