#1,520: Honey Cilantro-Lime Grilled Chicken


I had all of the ingredients on hand for this recipe and it was a beautiful, perfect grilling night.  So it was a great day to try out this recipe!  Everyone really enjoyed this one, and the chicken was super moist and tender!  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
6 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Juice of 2 limes
4 garlic cloves, minced
1-2 teaspoons Sriracha (optional)

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, cilantro, lime, garlic and Sriracha sauce.  Whisk until everything is combined.  Pour half into a large zip lock plastic bag and add the chicken breasts.  Seal bag and shake to ensure all the chicken breasts are coated.  Place the bag in the fridge and allow to sit for an hour.  Place the other half of the marinade in the fridge until ready to use.

Preheat grill to medium high heat.  Grill chicken for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until juices run clear.  Serve with the extra sauce drizzled over or as a dip, if desired.
