- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Preheat a grill to medium (400-450 degrees) heat.
In a small bowl, combine ancho chili powder, dried basil leaves, smoked paprika, ground mustard seed, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, coriander and cumin. Rub the chicken breasts with the spice mixture, using a small amount of olive oil as needed to help the spice mixture adhere.
Place chicken on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until an internal temperature of 165 degrees is reached.
While the chicken is on the grill, prepare the salsa. In a medium bowl, combine the corn, onion, tomatoes, parsley and black pepper. Gently stir to combine.
To serve, spoon the relish over the chicken.
