Kick Up Your Chicken Dinner
Here’s a tasty and low-cal way to dress-up a dinner staple.
Ingredients
- 6 medium skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 3/4 pounds total)
- 1 teaspoon finely shredded lime peel
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
- For marinade, in a small bowl, stir together lime peel, lime juice, rosemary, oil, sugar, garlic, and salt. Pour over chicken. Seal bag; turn to coat chicken. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours, turning bag occasionally.
- Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Season chicken with pepper.
- For a charcoal grill, place chicken on the grill rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill uncovered for 10 to 12 minutes or until tender and no longer pink (170 degrees F), turning once halfway through grilling. For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place chicken on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.
