Description
This is a quintessential summer dish for entertaining. Marinading the chicken the night before ensures fabulous taste throughout and less prep the day of.

Directions
1) In a small mixing bowl, gradually stir hot water into peanut butter. Stir in chili sauce, soy sauce, oil, vinegar, garlic, ginger root, and red pepper.
2) Place chicken in a plastic bag and pour marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and turn to coat chicken thighs. Chill for 12-24 hours, turning the bag occasionally to coat chicken.
1-2 hours before dinner is served, prepare salsa:
1)In a medium bowl combine chopped fruit, cucumber, green onion, parsley or cilantro, sugar, oil and vinegar. Mix, cover and chill 1-2 hours.
2) Remove chicken and discard marinade.
3) Place chicken onto grill (medium heat) and grill for 35-45 minutes or until thermometer reads 165 or no longer pink.
4) Serve chicken garnished with salsa spooned over top.
Probably serves 6 depending on appetites.
