Sweet Chili Lime Grilled Chicken: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 43 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
– 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon ground ginger
– 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)
– Lime wedges, for serving


Instructions

Creating Sweet Chili Lime Grilled Chicken is a breeze when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, ground ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F (190°C).
4. Remove Chicken from Marinade: Take the chicken out of the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
5. Grill the Chicken: Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Avoid flipping the chicken too often to achieve nice grill marks.
6. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
7. Serve: Slice the chicken and garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges if desired.

These simple steps will guide you to create a dish that is sure to become a family favorite!
