Honey Lime Chicken (Great for Foreman)
Permalink Closed


I forgot to post this recipe. I tried it last week and it was really good on the george foreman grill.  It kept the chicken really juicy and not the least bit dried out.  I didn't really taste the honey/lime though but that might be because my sinuses were acting up.  The bf could taste it though.

1 lime, juiced
2 tablespoons honey
1 rounded teaspoon cumin
A handful cilantro, finely chopped, about 1/2 tablespoons
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, canola, or corn oil
4 (6 to unce) boneless skinless chicken breast
1 teaspoon grill seasoning blend or coarse salt and pepper
Five Vegetable Slaw Salad, recipe follows  (I stopped here)
Toppings: lettuce, tomato, red onion, and sliced avocado
1 cup prepared salsa verde (didn't do this one either)
4 crusty rolls, split



Combine first 5 ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle chicken with seasoning blend or salt and pepper. Coat chicken in dressing and set aside for 10 minutes.
Grill chicken on an indoor electric grill 6 to 7 minutes on each side or pan fry over medium high heat in a large nonstick skillet uncovered 6 minutes per side.
Slice chicken breasts on an angle and pile meat roll bottoms. Top with lettuce, tomato, red onion and sliced avocado. Spread salsa on roll tops as a condiment. Serve sandwiches with Five Vegetable Slaw Salad and assorted tortilla chips.



Five Vegetable Slaw Salad:   (Didn't have time or the braveness to try this out)
1 pound packaged shredded cabbage
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and cut across into thin slices
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and cut across into thin slices
4 scallions, sliced thinly on an angle (greens and whites)
1/2 European seedless cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 limes, juiced
1 /4 cup (3 healthy drizzles) honey
3 tablespoons (a couple of glugs) vegetable or light colored oil
Salt and pepper



Combine vegetables in a bowl. In another small bowl, whisk lime juice and honey, and drizzle in oil to combine dressing. Pour dressing over slaw and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

It made the chicken really juicy so at least do the marinade part if nothing else.  I will probably try it again when I'm not sick to give it another chance and maybe try some toppings on it besides cheese.

You marinate the chicken in the sauce for 10 minutes then throw it away so you don't have to worry about it being messy or anything cause you won't be cooking with it.  The salad and salsa you put on after you cook it also.
