This is a recipe for Cilantro Lime Chicken.
Be honest, how many times have you searched “chicken recipes” on Pinterest. Time to mix it up! This flavorful marinade can easily be added in to your meal prep to mix things up. Simple, fresh ingredients with a kick of lime, cumin, cilantro and the sweet honey balance these Cilantro Lime Chicken Skewers.
You can make this days ahead or even prepare, pack and freeze. I used a grill as it’s still warm enough in Philadelphia but a grill pan will do just fine. Prepare with coconut rice or brown rice for a meal (or Lime Margarita if that’s your style!).
Anything on a stick is always much more fun than not on a stick, but you can also make this recipe with whole chicken breasts or chicken tights too.
