Skillet Lime Cilantro Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Lime slices (for garnish)
  • Additional chopped cilantro (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken:

    • In a bowl, whisk together lime juice, garlic, cilantro, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
    • Pour the marinade over the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
    • Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.

  2. Heat the Skillet:

    • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  3. Cook the Chicken:

    • Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off any excess.
    • Place the chicken in the hot skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is golden brown.

  4. Deglaze the Pan (Optional):

    • For extra flavor, pour the remaining marinade into the skillet and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.

  5. Garnish and Serve:

    • Transfer the chicken to a serving plate.
    • Garnish with lime slices and additional chopped cilantro.

  6. Enjoy:

    • Serve hot with rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.

Tips:

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade.
  • This recipe also works well with chicken thighs or drumsticks.

Fresh, zesty, and flavorful—perfect for a quick and healthy meal! 🌿🍋
