Combine the salsa ingredients in a medium bowl, mix well.
Place
in a serving bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Soak the tangerine peel in warm water for 30 minutes. Drain and
finely chop the peel. Place the peel in a bowl with the remaining
marinade ingredients. Place the breast halves between 2 sheets of
plastic wrap and pound with a flat-surfaced mallet until about 1/4
inch thick. Place the breasts in a sealable plastic bag, pour in
the
marinade, and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 2 or 4 hours, turning
the bag occasionally to distribute the marinade. Lift the chicken
from the marinade and drain briefly.
Reserve the marinade. Place the chicken on an oiled grill 4 to 6
inches above a solid bed of medium-glowing coals. Cook until
the chicken is no longer pink when cut, about 3 minutes on each
side. Meanwhile, stack and wrap the tortillas in foil and place on
one side of the grill to heat.
While the chicken is grilling, heat a wok over high heat until hot.
Add the oil, chile, bell peppers, carrot and onion and stir fry for 1
minute. Add 1/4 cup of the reserved chicken marinade and stir
fry for 1 minute.
To serve, cut the chicken across the grain into slanting slices.
Place the chicken, vegetables, and tortillas on a platter.
Place the
avocado, salsa and cilantro sprigs in separate serving dishes. Wrap
the
chicken and your choice of condiments in a tortilla and eat out of
hand...
