For dressing, mix honey-mustard dressing and lime peel. If necessary, add water to make of drizzling consistency. Cover and chill dressing till ready to serve.

Rinse chicken breast halves; pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle chicken with the Jamaican jerk seasoning. In a 10-inch skillet cook the seasoned chicken in hot oil over medium-high heat about 6 minutes per side or till golden brown and no pink remains. Thinly bias slice each chicken breast.

If using fresh mangoes, pit, peel, and slice each one. Divide greens among 4 dinner plates. Arrange warm chicken and mango atop; drizzle with dressing. If desired, top with strips of lime peel. Makes 4 servings.

Make-Ahead Tip: Combine ingredients for dressing. Cover and chill up to 8 hours ahead. Just before serving, drizzle over prepared salads.

It seems to be missing ingredients...1/2 c bottled fat free? 3 tsp purchased or homemade ? 12 c torn ?

It seems interesting but cannot make without full ingredient list.
