Honey-Lime Chicken

There are two things I love in the summer: grilling and citrus. The grilling is self-explanatory, but there's just something about the clean, fresh taste of citrus that cools me down. This lime-based chicken is great on it's own (paired with Cilantro-Lime Rice) or would make a fresh salad really pop! 

1-2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts 

Marinade:

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

¼ cup fresh lime juice (2 limes), plus zest

2 T. honey

½ tsp. cayenne

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. pepper

In a large, resealable plastic bag combine all marinade ingredients; seal the bag and shake to combine. Add the chicken to the bag; shake to coat and refrigerate overnight or at least 3 hours.

Preheat grill over medium heat. Grill chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, until cooked through. Serve with Cilantro-Lime Rice.
