Grilled chicken breasts are brushed with a delicious honey and balsamic vinegar glaze just minutes before they're done, creating a golden, sticky crust with a sweet and spicy flavor. To serve, prepare a delicious mint sauce with green peas. It will thicken the chicken beautifully and add a vibrant color without overpowering the vibrant mint flavor, with hints of spicy jalapeño and cilantro. Blanch the peas in boiling water for a few seconds until they soften slightly and develop a vibrant color.
