Easy Cilantro Lime Chicken

This quick and flavorful cilantro lime chicken is perfect for weeknight dinners or meal prepping. The marinade is fresh and zesty, with lime, garlic, and cilantro creating a bright and tangy flavor profile that complements chicken perfectly.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional, for heat)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade:

    • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. Marinate the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken breasts (or thighs) in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
    • Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well-coated.
    • Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours (overnight is ideal for a more intense flavor).

  3. Cook the Chicken:

    • Grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
    • Pan-Seared: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil. Sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, until cooked through.
    • Baked: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

  4. Serve:

    • Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
    • Garnish with extra fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges for squeezing over the top.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve with a side of rice, such as cilantro lime rice or brown rice, or alongside roasted vegetables.
  • This chicken also makes a great topping for salads, tacos, or wraps.

This Easy Cilantro Lime Chicken is fresh, flavorful, and simple to make, making it a great option for busy evenings or when you're craving something light and tasty! Enjoy!
