The spiciness of the jalapeno paired with the sourness of the lime flavor was a favorite. This recipe gives a lot of flavor without being packed full of salt, making it a perfect meal for those on a diet or those who are trying to eliminate salt from their food.

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Juice of 1 lime

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

  • 1 Tbsp white or apple cider vinegar

  • 1 jalapeno, minced

  • 1 Tbsp Adobo Lime Rub

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except chicken and mix well.

  2. Trim any fat from your chicken breasts and dispose of fat. Place chicken breasts in a Tupperware container or a plastic bag. Pour marinade over chicken, cover and refrigerate. Let marinate for at least an hour, and as long as 4 hours. Turn chicken over at least once while marinating.

  3. Prepare grill, and grill chicken for a few minutes on each side(about 4-5 minutes per side). Cook until the internal temperature is 165 Degrees F.

  4. After chicken has rested for 5 minutes, slice thinly against the grain of the meat and serve.
