Grilled Cilantro Lime Chicken
....lip-smacking and succulent!
***
This is a recipe adapted from Paula Deen
and you will love it! I promise.
We have been enjoying it throughout the summer.
Here is my favorite grill master
preparing our supper!
1 c. finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 c. mayonnaise
½ c. extra-virgin olive oil
¼ c. lime juice
(fresh - I also add the zest of 2 limes)
2 t. ground cumin
1 t. salt
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
(I use tenderloins or slice the breasts in strips)
~*~
In a resealable plastic bag, combine cilantro, mayo, oil, lime juice, cumin and salt.
Add chicken, seal bag, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 8 hours.
Spray grill with nonstick nonflammable cooking spray.
Preheat grill to medium heat (300-350).
Remove chicken from marinade, discard marinade.
Grill chicken, covered with grill lid,
for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until chicken is done.
Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

ReplyDeleteThat grilled lime chicken looks so good. I wonder if you could put those in fajitas. Jess came over and checked out your recipes, and she thought they were incredible, and can't wait to try them out. Have a lovely weekend.
