Preparation

Step 1

Cut the chicken into thick strips.
Add the cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, water, brown sugar, salt, pepper, cumin, and red pepper flakes to a food processor or blender. Pulse until combined. Set half the sauce aside and marinate the chicken in remaining sauce for at least one hour.
When ready to grill, remove the chicken from marinade letting excess drip off. Grill for 4-6 minutes per side or until chicken is cooked through. Drizzle remaining sauce on the chicken and serve.
