Ingredients
- 3/4 c canola oil
- 1/2 c lime juice
- 1/4 c orange juice
- 2 T each minced garlic and jalapeno pepper
- 3/4 t salt
- 1/4 c sugar
- 12 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 3 1/2 lb)
- 1/2 c chopped cilantro
- Garnish: chopped cilantro, lime and orange wedges
Preparation
Step 1
Combine oil, lime juice, orange juice, garlic, jalapeno pepper and salt in a medium bowl. Transfer 1 cup lime juice mixture and the sugar to a 2-gallon ziptop freezer bag; seal bad and turn a few times to mix. Add chicken breasts; turn to coat chicken. Refrigerate overnight, occasionally turning bag. Reserve remaining lime juice mixture (about 2/3 cup).
Brush grill with oil or coat with nonstick grilling spray. Heat outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium-high heat.
Put reserved lime juice mixture and cilantro in blender. Blend until smooth.
Remove chicken breasts from bag (discard liquid in bag). Grill chicken 5 to 6 minutes, turning once, until nicely browned and cooked through.
Place chicken on a platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro and fruit if desired. Serve hot or at room temperature with cilantro sauce.
