Grilled Honey Lime Cilantro Chicken

Ingredients:

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, or thighs(I used thinly sliced chicken breast)

1/4 cup lime juice

2Tbsp soy sauce

1Tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 cup cilantro, finely chopped

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

 

Instructions:

Put chicken in ziplock bag. In a small bowl combine lime juice, honey, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, cilantro, salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the chicken and seal the bag and let the marinade for 3 hours or overnight.

 

Preheat your grill to medium/high heat. Grill each side of the chicken for about 3-4 minutes or until cooked throughout and no longer pink.

Mexican Street Corn Salsa

1 1/2 cups corn

1 jalapeno

1/2 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 lime

2 Tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

2oz cotija cheese

 

Instructions:

Finely dice the jalapeño pepper. Remove the ribs and sees for a mild heat or keep them in for more of a kick.

Add all of the ingredients to a small bowl and mix. Season to taste as needed. Refrigerate until chilled, approximately 30 minutes. This salsa is the best the same day as th corn tends to dry out if made too far in advance. You can correct this by adding more lime or a little water to freshen it up again!
