  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 15 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1/4 cup lime juice (freshly squeezed)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 teaspoons chili powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– Fresh cilantro, for garnish
– Lime wedges, for serving


Instructions

Creating Grilled Chili Lime Chicken is an easy process when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish.
2. Make Marinade: In a bowl, mix lime juice, olive oil, honey, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate Chicken: Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 15-30 minutes.
4. Preheat Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat on the stovetop.
5. Grill Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and let the excess drip off. Place the chicken on the grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
6. Rest Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
7. Garnish: Slice the chicken and garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.

These straightforward steps will help you create this incredible dish with ease!
