Garlic Lime Chicken Breasts image

This came from my friend Liz's recipe box. Few ingredients but great flavor, chicken always turns out moist. She makes extra to have leftovers for Mexican Lime Chicken Soup.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 17m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
4 chicken breast halves, rinsed and patted dry (2 lbs. total, with or without skin)
lime wedge

Steps:

  • Whisk together lime juice, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Add chicken, turning to coat. Marinate chicken, covered and refrigerated, turning once or twice, for at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
  • Put a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees.
  • Remove chicken from marinade (discard marinade) and arrange skin side up, without crowding, in a shallow baking dish.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Roast until just cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • If chicken has a skin, turn oven to broil. Broil chicken about 2 inches from the heat until skin is crisp, about 2 minutes.
  • Serve with lime wedges.

I marinated the chicken overnight and it was even better the next day.

This chicken was so flavorful and juicy! I marinated it for about 4 hours and then grilled it. The garlic and lime flavors were perfect together.
