  • Salsa: In a small bowl, whisk the honey together with 1 tablespoon of lime juice. In another bowl, combine the pineapple, cucumber, and mint, pour the honey-lime mixture over them, and stir well until evenly coated. Set aside. Chicken: Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the pounded chicken breasts and cook for 4 minutes per side, until golden. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover it with foil to keep it warm. Pour the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil into a saucepan and heat it. Add the onion, garlic, ginger, peppercorns, and cumin. Sauté for 30 seconds over medium heat. Then pour in the chicken broth and soy sauce and cook until the liquid has reduced by half. Add the 2 tablespoons of lime juice. Return the chicken to the pan and spoon the spicy sauce generously over the top. Serve the chicken with the salsa.
