A lite and refreshing summer dish to use up some of those garden tomatoes. Quick and tasty dish. I used heirloom because that is what we grow but any type of tomato could be used.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Combine onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and chili powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle chicken with spice mixture and rub until evenly coated. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Arrange chicken on the preheated grill and grill for 8 minutes. Turn and grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 4 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Remove chicken from the grill and drizzle with remaining olive oil. Let stand for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix avocado, tomato, and red onion for salsa together in a small bowl. Add lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
- Slice chicken and top with salsa.

AVOCADO TOMATILLO SALSA
This spectacularly simple green sauce may be the perfect summer condiment. It requires no cooking, only takes 10 to 15 minutes to make, looks gorgeous, and tastes amazing with anything grilled and most things that aren't. Spoon over grilled pork tacos, grilled meats, or serve with chips.

BBQ CHILI DRUMSTICKS WITH AVOCADO & TOMATO SALSA
Lately I've had a craving for Mexican/Central/South American Food. I found this at the Chicken Farmers Website, and it looks delicious. For a complete meal, serve with Gallo Pinto, or Black Beans with Rice.

Steps:
- Remove the skin from the chicken. Put the drumsticks in a medium bowl or plastic bag. Drizzle them with the olive oil and sprinkle in the ground cumin, chili powder, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Preheat BBQ. Grill to medium heat. Grill the chicken turning once, until fully cooked and browned - about 20 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into the chicken reads 165°F
- While the chicken cooks prepare the fresh salsa; cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place in a medium size bowl. Peel and dice the avocado, dice the onion, mince the cilantro and gently combine all the fresh vegetables. Drizzle with fresh lime juice and toss again. Serve alongside the chicken.
