4 servings

1/2 cup orange juice

1/4 cup lime juice

2 shallots, minced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon white sugar

4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

8 cups torn romaine lettuce

2 oranges - peeled, segmented, and chopped

2 stalks celery, sliced

4 green onions, chopped

In a mixing bowl, whisk together orange juice, lime juice, shallots, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and sugar.

Pour 1/2 of this mixture into a large, resealable plastic bag, and add the chicken breasts.

Seal, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Refrigerate the remaining dressing.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.

In a large salad bowl, toss romaine lettuce with oranges, celery, and green onions.

Set aside.

Lightly oil grate, and place chicken on grill.

Discard the marinade from the chicken.

Cook for 6 to 8 minutes each side, or until juices run clear when pierced with a fork.

Remove chicken from grill, and slice into thin strips.

Toss salad with reserved dressing, and top with sliced chicken.
