Ingredients
- 4 x skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 1 c. fresh lime juice (I used less maybe 2/3 of a c.)
- 2 Tbsp. lime zest chopped (remove the white of the lime skin and dice the peel)
- 1 x cloves garlic crushed (1 to 2)
Directions
- Mix the lime, garlic and zest in a shallow dish. Lay the chicken breasts in the mix, coat well, seal and chill for at least 2 hrs (but not more than 18). Turn at least once during marinating time.
- Grill breasts on the bar-b-que approximately 5 min per side, till cooked through.
- If using for fajitas, slice into strips and serve with low-fat guacamole
- (ask me if you want the recipe and I'll post it), salsa, shredded lettuce, low-fat cheese (you do not need the cheese if you serve the guacamole),flour tortillas and fresh pico de gallo (pico de gallo - chop: tomatoes, Spanish type onion, fresh jalapeno and squeeze fresh lime juice over top. Let sit in fridge for at least one hour. You can add in frzn corn kernels that have been run under cool water to thaw for added color and crunch), and any other fajita fixings you like.
- NOTES : I made these the other night and they were juicy and delicious! I used them to make fajitas, but they would be lovely on their own with a nice rice side dish and some crisp veggies.
- The kids love this, it's fun, messy and delicious.
