Begin by marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water and cook it according to package instructions, typically using 2 cups of water or broth for added flavor.
In a separate bowl, combine diced avocado, diced mango, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt to create the salsa.
Once the quinoa is cooked, fluff it with a fork and mix in diced bell peppers, chopped green onions, and a drizzle of olive oil.
To serve, slice the grilled chicken and place it over a bed of the quinoa medley, topped with a generous scoop of the avocado-mango salsa.
Garnish with lime wedges and fresh cilantro for an extra pop of flavor.
