Zest and juice of 2 limes
2 heaping tablespoons Henry’s Humdingers Naughty Nana honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 garlic clove, grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
To make the marinade, mix the lime zest, juice, honey, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper in a small mason jar and shake to combine, or mix it in a bowl. Make sure the honey totally dissolved in the marinade.
Place the chicken pieces in a non-reactive dish, and pour the marinade over the chicken. Thoroughly coat the chicken with the marinade, then place them in the fridge to marinate for 1 to 24 hours.
When you’re ready to grill the chicken, heat your grill to medium heat.
Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Since this marinade has honey in it, it can tend to burn if you don’t be careful, so don’t walk away while you’re making this.
Check out that delish caramelization that happens on the grill when you cook something with sugar! That right there is why I love to grill!
Serve my honey lime chicken with this recipe for restaurant style mashed potatoes for the perfect weeknight dinner!
