Honey Lime Grilled Chicken

Ingredients:

·         ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

·         ¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice (2 limes), plus the zest of both limes.

·         2 tablespoons honey

·         ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

·         1 teaspoon kosher salt

·         1 teaspoon black pepper

·         2 pounds of boneless chicken breasts

 

Directions:

·         Open a gallon-size Ziploc bag and place in a container with the edges of the bag over the sides (makes it easier to add the ingredients).

·         Combine all the ingredients in the bag, except for the chicken.  Seal the bag completely and shake well.

 

·         Add chicken to the bag, seal completely and turn to coat chicken.  Refrigerate the marinated chicken overnight (or at least 5-6 hours).

 

·         Heat grill or pan to medium-high.  Grill chicken about 6-7 minutes each side or until juices run clear.  Reduce the time if using thin chicken breasts.

Makes 4-6 servings
