I created this recipe when I accidentally bought lime concentrate instead of lemonade. I like the extra zing of the lime and the caramelization from basting. We slice the chicken and serve in tortillas like fajitas or just serve it with sides.

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken breast filets or cut of your choice
  • 1/2 can frozen lime juice concentrate, thawed
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix
  • Sprinkle steak seasoning (to taste)

How To Make grilled lime chicken

  • Step 1
    Make a marinade of the lime concentrate, garlic and taco seasoning. Pour 3/4 onto chicken in a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours. Save the remaining for basting.
  • Step 2
    Prepare your grill or smoker by oiling your grate. Place chicken on grill and sprinkle with steak seasoning.
  • Step 3
    Baste the chicken with remaining marinade when mostly done. Remove from grill when the chicken is cooked through. Enjoy!
