Lime Marinade for Chicken
I hadn't realized that lime would make such a dramatic difference in grilled chicken (vs. lemon), but the grilled breasts at the
BFL Conference were to die for.
And the big bags of little key limes they sell at Ralph's contain far too many to use in gin & tonics (and ginless tonics) before a few dry out and look/taste icky.
So this Sunday I'd like to do a little grilling if time permits; please share your favorite marinade recipes that contain some fresh lime juice. Yum.
UPDATE: You people aren't too helpful, are you? You forced me to actually DO SOME WORK MYSELF. It was grim; but here you go.
Please report here your favorite adventures involving chicken, lime, and your grill.

Lime is the perfect chicken marinade. Lime + chicken = heaven on the grill.

So, when do the lime recipes start rolling in? I've been waiting patiently!

I'm surprised. I might resort to hitting the epicurious site and doing a search for grilled chicken + lime.

Sorry, here's a good one. I'm a big fan of Alton Brown on Good Eats. Here's his skirt steak recipe, which makes for truly good eats when used in a fajita.

This one is great.
1/3 palmful of cumin powder
1/3 palmful of chillie powder
2 teaspoons honey
about 1/2 cup lime juice
this is all approx. it's best just to smell it n add more of what you feel it needs.
Stab lots of holes in your chicken and sit it in this marinade 30 minutes. turn n sit 15 minutes. ready for grillin'.
Enjoy
