This is now one of my favorite dishes!! I did it all on the stove top. I browned chicken in peanut oil with a dash of red pepper flakes in the oil. Browned on both sides and then turned heat down and simmered till chicken was tender. Poured the fruit mix on top (I used canned chopped Jalapenos) and let it sit for a few minutes so let flavors blend. Served with rice and green beans. Very quick and soooo good!!

I agree this is an extra tasty dish. Instead of grilling, I dried the chicken breasts with a paper towel, then powered with flower. The chicken was simmered on the stove in olive oil on low heat, covered until done. Excellent served with rice !

I wasn't sure how it was all going to come together, but it has a great flavor and the fruit salsa is awesome!
