Honey Marinated BBQ Chicken
Ingredients
-
1 lb. chicken breast
-
For Marinade:
-
2 limes, juiced
-
2 garlic cloves, crushed or chopped
-
1 ½ tsp. salt
-
3-4 tbsp. honey or agave nectar
-
½ cup barbeque sauce (your favorite)
Directions
To marinate: In a resealable, plastic bag, place raw chicken breasts. Add in ingredients for marinade (lime juice, garlic, salt, and honey.) Seal bag and evenly coat your chicken breasts. Refrigerate. Marinate at least overnight.
When ready to serve, heat your grill to medium. You’ll need your marinated chicken and ½ cup of barbeque sauce (with a grill brush). Lay raw, marinated chicken breast straight on the grill. Brush with barbeque sauce. Close lid and let cook for 3-5 minutes then flip. Brush opposite side with barbeque sauce. Close grill and let cook for another 3-5 minutes. Use tongs to remove chicken from grill and enjoy!
