A zesty marinade with a mix of seasonings that include basil, garlic, olive oil and lemon zest tenderize the chicken, adding a tasty flavor combination. The rhubarb salsa contains both honey and jalapeño for a sweet-and spicy flavor. Rhubarb stalks are perfectly fine to eat raw. It's the leaves that are toxic. The subtle tart flavor of uncooked rhubarb is a perfect match for the deeply sweet mango and crunchy cucumber, while a touch of honey rounds it all out.
