Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 organic boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 oz each)
  • zest and juice of 1 lime (plus 1 lime cut into wedges)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (divided)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tsp kosher salt and black pepper (to taste)

Instruction

  • Pound the thicker end of the chicken breast with a mallet to make it even with the thinner end.
  • Combine the juice of 1 lime, lime zest, olive oil, 1/4 cup of the cilantro finely chopped, garlic and salt to a large glass or ceramic container with a lid, or a gallon size freezer bag.
  • Coat the chicken well on both sides and marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour or as long as overnight, the longer the better, turning halfway.
  • When ready to cook, oil a grill or grill pan over medium to medium-high heat.
  • Grill about 5 minutes on each side, or until charred and cooked through in the center.
  • Remove and set aside on a platter and squeeze the remaining lime over the chicken. Garnish with the remaining fresh cilantro.
