Honey Lime & Cilantro Marinated Grilled Chicken

Fire up the grill for this Honey lime & cilantro marinated grilled chicken. It's so flavorful thanks to the marinade of honey, lime, cilantro, olive oil, fresh garlic, and seasonings. Make this for an easy and delicious weeknight dinner or weekend BBQ.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • juice of 2 limes
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 garlic cloves minced or pressed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (trimmed)

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a Ziploc bag. Add the chicken breasts and shake to mix everything and coat the chicken.
  • Let marinate for 3-4 hours in the fridge.
  • Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side or until chicken is up to temperature.

Notes

If you want some heat add a chopped jalapeno in with the marinade mixture.
I always cut my chicken breasts in half so I have 8 smaller pieces.
