  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1/3 cup honey
– 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)
– Lime wedges for serving


Instructions

Create your amazing Honey Lime Chicken by following these straightforward steps:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix honey, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

2. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C).

3. Prepare the Grill: Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Discard any remaining marinade.

4. Grill the Chicken: Place the chicken on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked and juices run clear. If using the oven, place chicken in a baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through.

5. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.

6. Let It Rest: After cooking, remove the chicken from the grill or oven and let it rest for 5 minutes to retain its juices.

7. Slice and Serve: Slice the chicken and place it on a serving platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro and lime wedges if desired.

These steps will guide you through crafting an incredible Honey Lime Chicken that everyone will adore.
