Juicy and tender cilantro lime chicken infused with the flavors of fresh cilantro, tangy lime, and classic Mexican seasonings in an easy marinade.
Let’s get started!
- chicken - cilantro - lime juice - olive oil - garlic - kosher salt - onion powder - ground cumin
For a sweeter marinade, blend in 1 to 2 tablespoons of honey. It will add a little bit of a sticky sweetness that’s so good!
*Quick Tip!*
Add the cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, onion powder, and ground cumin to a food processor or blender. Pulse until smooth.
