Cilantro-Lime Chicken with Avocado Salsa

I absolutely LOVE avocados, and basically put them on anything I can. Unfortunately, usually here in the midwest, avocados are never in season and usually very expensive. However, last week they were $.59 each, and this week they were $1 each, so I bought a bunch and we have been eating them every day and using lots of recipes with avocados. This is a recipe I cut out of a Cooking Light magazine a while back, but never tried it. It was really tasty! I didn't have enough limes, so I used lemon and lime, and it worked just as good.
