Citrus Chicken with Roasted Corn Relish

Cooking Light's Lazy Gourmet. I've made this a few times so far.

4 chicken breasts, skinless
2/3 cup fresh lime juice, divided
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground red pepper, divided
cooking spray
16 oz frozen corn with peppers & onions, thawed
2 Tbsp fresh cilantro

Place chicken in heavy duty ziploc bag. Reserve 1 Tbsp lime juice. Pour remaining juice over chicken. Seal bag- shake until chicken is well coated. Marinate in fridge 1 hour, turning occasionally.

Combine spices in a bow. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Sprinkle chicken with spice mixture.

Coat a broiler pan with cooking spray. Place chicken on rack. Broil 8 inches from heat with door partially opened (in electric oven), for 25 minutes. Turn chicken, broil additional 15 minutes or until done. Set chicken aside. keep warm.

Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Place skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add corn mixture and remaining 1/8 tsp red pepper. Saute until corn is lightly browned and tender. Spoon corn onto plates & place chicken over top. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
