Cilantro Lime Marinade
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lime, juiced
1/2 tbsp pure (local) honey
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper

Place all ingredients into a Ziploc bag. Add skinless chicken breasts and mix well to evenly coat. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours.

Chicken
Remove the chicken from the bag and grill or bake/roast your chicken. Roasting chicken at 450°F should require a cooking time of about 15-18 minutes (depending on the thickness/size of your chicken breasts).
