Fresh Fruit Salsa Chicken
Here, a tangy-sweet fruit salsa makes a wonderful accompaniment to chicken cutlets. The dish is great with couscous or brown rice, or, if you care to go the extra mile, rice pilaf.

Servings: 4
Ingredients:
* 4 large chicken cutlets
* Soy flour (approximately 1/2 cup, more if needed)
* 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
* 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
* 1/2 cup chopped red onion
* 1/2 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
* 1/2 cup white wine
* 2 1/2 cups diced fresh fruit (nectarines, peaches, plums, kiwifruit or any combo)
* 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
* Salt to taste
* Freshly ground black pepper
* Cilantro sprigs
Directions:
Dust the chicken with soy flour. In a medium skillet, gently saute the cutlets in the olive oil and butter until cooked. Remove to a warm platter.
Add the onion and jalapeno (and additional oil, if needed) and saute until soft. Add the wine to the skillet, scraping the bottom of the pan. Reduce by half. Add the fruits, lime juice, salt and pepper. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Serve over the chicken. Garnish with cilantro.
