CILANTRO-LIME MARINATED GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine chiles, canola oil, cilantro, lime zest and juice, garlic, jalapeno, honey, salt, and pepper in a 1-gallon freezer bag and seal completely.

• Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Grill chicken, covered, on the preheated grill until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
• Remove chicken from the grill and let rest under aluminum foil to redistribute juices back into the meat, 4 to 5 minutes.
