Grilled Honey Lime Chicken
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 3 hours 35 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 1-1/2 to 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
For the Marinade:
- 1 cup canned coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
For the Sauce:
- 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
How to Make:
- Combine the coconut milk, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and soy sauce in a shallow casserole dish or zip-top bag. Add the chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for 3-12 hours.
- When ready to cook, whisk together the vinegar, lime juice, brown sugar, honey, and soy sauce in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until thickened and the sauce coats the back of a spoon, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat a grill or skillet to medium heat. Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the sauce over the chicken, repeating as desired for a thicker coating. Remove from heat.
- Serve the chicken with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.
