Preparation steps

1.
For the chicken: place the chicken breasts in a non-metal bowl.
2.
Mix together the lime juice, oil, salt and pepper. Pour over the chicken and toss the chicken in the mixture. Cover and leave to stand for 1 hour.
3.
For the salsa: mix together the vegetables and coriander. Stir together the remaining ingredients and stir into the vegetables. Toss until well mixed. Leave to stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes before serving.
4.
Heat the grill.
5.
Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and grill for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through. To test if the chicken is cooked -insert a skewer or knife into the chicken - the juices should run clear with no trace of pink.
6.
Place on serving plates and spoon the salsa on top. Garnish with lime wedges and lettuce.
