1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 c honey
zest of 2 limes and juice of 1 lemon
3/4 c sour cream
1/2 c cilantro chopped
3/4 c mango salsa

1. Crush tortilla chips in bag with a rolling pin. Add garlic powder and black pepper and shake it to mix it up.
2. In pie pan, mix zest and juice of one lime with honey.
3. Dip chicken into honey mix and then dip it into the chip mix. Lay on a sprayed pan.
