Serves 4
Time: 2 hr 25 minCalories: ≈300 kcal

Chicken breasts marinated in a cilantro-lime blend, then grilled — the week's batch.

Ingredients
  • ½ bunch fresh cilantro (about ⅓ to ½ cup, chopped)
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt or sea salt
  • 1 to 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 large or 4 small)
Method
  1. Place the cilantro, lime juice, garlic-infused oil, olive oil, maple syrup, cumin, and salt in a blender. Blend until the cilantro is processed into tiny pieces.
  2. Place the chicken in the bottom of a sealable container. Pour the cilantro lime marinade over the chicken and turn to coat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but no longer than 24 hours.
  3. Cook the chicken using your preferred method.
Notes
