			| Peanut Ginger Chicken with California Salsa submitted by Mom Johnson |  
			|  |  
			|  |  
			| | Description One of our favorite summer BBQ dishes!  The marinade looks ugly but the flavor is fantastic.  We often make a double batch of the salsa.
 
 
 | 
 | Directions In a mixing bowl, gradually stir hot water into peanut butter until mixed.  Stir in the chili sauce, soy sauce, the 2 T. oil, 2 T. vinegar, garlic, ginger root and red pepper.  Place chicken in a sealable plastic bag and pour marinade over chicken.  Seal the bag and turn to coat all parts of the chicken.  Chill for 12-24 hours, turning the bag occasionally to coat the chicken.
 For Salsa, in a medium bowl combine chopped fruit, cucumber, green onion, cilantro, sugar, oil and vinegar.  Cover and chill for 1-2 hours.
 Remove chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.  Place chicken onto a medium heated grill and grill for 35-45 minutes or till no pink remains.  Serve chicken garnished with salsa spooned over the top and pass the remaining salsa.
