Directions

Step ONE
Season the chicken breast with the mocha spice rub and grill in a grill pan over medium-high heat. While the chicken is cooking, combine the honey, vinegar, lemon juice, and coffee in a saucepot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until the sauce is a honey-like consistency. Strain through a fine mesh strainer or coffee filter.
Step TWO
In a medium saucepan bring milk, water, and salt to a boil. Whisk in cornmeal, reduce heat to low, and cover. Whisk frequently to prevent lumps and sticking, cooking for approximately 20 minutes or until the mixture is creamy. Whisk in pepper and cheese. In a sauté pan on medium-high heat add oil. Once the oil is hot, add mustard greens and quickly sauté until just wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
Step THREE
Plate your grilled chicken with grits and wilted greens. Drizzle the coffee sauce over the chicken. Serve and enjoy!
