The bright, fresh flavor of lime sparks up a simple chicken for the grill or the broiler. Too tasty to believe that its healthy! Removing the skin cuts the cholesterol. Adding a little heart-healthy olive oil preserves the juiciness. Its nice and quick too because, unlike many recipes of the sort, it does not require long marinating.
Ingredients:
5 -6 lbs skinless chicken pieces
1/4-1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons italian seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lime, juice of
1 -2 tablespoon white wine (optional)
Directions:
1. Whisk together everything except the chicken in a large bowl.
2. Add the chicken and toss to coat thoroughly.
3. Let sit for 15 minutes. Toss again.
4. Grill or broil quickly on medium-high heat until just barely done.
5. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
6. Tip - For the maximum flavor and juiciness I recommend the use of bone-in chicken parts.
7. Tip - if doing your own chicken parts (see How to Cut up a Chicken ), its easiest to remove the skin by grasping it with a wet, lint-free dishcloth.
8. Note - Cooking time may vary due to the specific parts chosen.
9. Note - Recommended for OAMC. Freeze it in the marinade and grill when thawed.
