Chicken, Mango, and Rice Salad

Description
This is an awesome summer salad. The mix of the ingredients may seem odd, but I promise you everyone I have served it to has loved it. Hopefully you will, too. The Mango gives just enough sweetness to the dish, and the many textures and flavors work well together. You may adjust the amounts to your liking. I tend to like more fruit and cilantro with less rice.



Ingredients

 * 1 1/2 cups uncooked rice, preferably short grain
 * 1 1/3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
 * 2 tablespoons oil
 * 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
 * 3/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
 * 3/4 cup chopped red onions
 * 1 mango, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch dice
 * 1 avocado, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch dice
 * 3 1/2 tablespoons lime juice (about 2 limes)
 * 3/4 cup chopped cilantro

Directions

 * water.
 * Coat chicken with 1 tbs. of the oil and season with 1/4 tsp. of the S/P.
 * Cook chicken until done
 * When chicken is cool enough to handle, dice into 1/2" pieces.
 * Toss the rice, chicken, onion, mango, avacado, and rest of the oil (1 tbs), remaining salt and pepper, lime juice, and cilantro.
 * Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
 * Revision: Since posting this recipe, I have been trying to cut back on consuming empty carbohydrates. So when I make this now I use little to no rice, and fill it with more of the other ingredients. It is still very good, especially after marinating for a while
