Directions

1. Make salsa: In a bowl, combine tomatoes, chiles, and green onions. In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring vinegar to a boil.
2. Add brown sugar and salt and cook, stirring, until dissolved, about 1 minute.
3. Remove from heat. Put ginger, garlic, and dry spices in a bowl. In another medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until rippling.
4. Add ginger mixture and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
5. Remove from heat, stir in seasoned vinegar, and pour over tomato mixture.
6. Let salsa cool, then cover and chill at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours. About 1 hour before serving, cut avocados into 3/4-in. chunks, add to salsa, and bring to room temperature.
7. Make chicken: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, and seasonings. Turn chicken in mixture to coat.
8. Let stand at room temperature, turning occasionally, 30 to 45 minutes.
9. Heat a grill to high (450 to 550). Lift chicken from marinade (discard marinade) and grill chicken, covered, turning often, until no longer pink in center, 15 to 20 minutes.
10. Transfer chicken to a platter and spoon salsa on top, saving half the liquid for another use (such as salad dressing).
