Tips:
- For the most flavorful chicken, use bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts. The bones and skin help to keep the chicken moist and juicy.
- Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help to infuse the chicken with flavor and prevent it from drying out.
- When grilling the chicken, cook it over medium-high heat until it is cooked through. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside moist.
- To make the gazpacho salsa, use ripe, fresh tomatoes. This will give the salsa the best flavor.
- If you don't have time to make the gazpacho salsa from scratch, you can use a store-bought salsa instead.
- Serve the grilled chicken breasts with the gazpacho salsa and your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or grilled vegetables.
