Instructions
To prepare chicken: In a small bowl, combine cumin, allspice and salt. Brush both sides of chicken with 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil and then sprinkle with cumin mixture. Cook chicken 5 minutes on each side or until no longer pink and juices run clear. Place on cutting board and let stand 5 minutes before thinly slicing diagonally.
Meanwhile, prepare salad by arranging equal amounts of greens, bell pepper, and mango on each of four dinner plates.
To prepare vinaigrette: Whisk together all ingredients. Spoon dressing evenly over each serving and top with equal amounts of chicken slices. Sprinkle with additional black pepper, if desired.
