Honey Lime Chicken


Sorry I've been slacking with the recipes lately. We've been busy, and then I've been trying to eat healthier.

I found this recipe in my Taste of Home Healthy Cooking magazine, which is an awesome recipe magazine! Lots of healthy, easy recipes! I did the marinating, then Nate took care of the chicken on the grill.  Served it with a 3-cheese rice side dish, and green beans.


INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 cup white wine or chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
 DIRECTIONS:
1.  In a large resealable bag, combine the wine, honey, lime juice and ginger; add chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 2 hours, turning once.
2.  Drain and discard marinade. Combine the garlic powder, salt and pepper; sprinkle over chicken. Using long-handled tongs, dip a paper towel in cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill, uncovered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Yield: 4 servings.
