Ingredients

  • 2  tablespoons yellow cornmeal
  • 2  tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1  tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/2  teaspoon salt
  • 1/4  teaspoon black pepper
  • 4  skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2  tablespoons cooking oil

  • 3  tablespoons snipped fresh cilantro
  • 3  tablespoons finely chopped onion
  • 2  tablespoons lime juice
  • 1  fresh jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
