Lime-Jalapeno Chicken

Category: MEXICAN

1/4 cup lime juice (about 2 limes)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 jalapeno, sliced
1 to 1-1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat, tenders removed

Preparation
1. Whisk lime juice, oil, vinegar, cumin and salt in a small bowl. Stir in jalapeno. Place chicken in a shallow baking dish and pour the marinade over it, turning to coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, turning once, or overnight.

2. Preheat grill to high heat. Oil the grill rack. Grill the chicken until cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 3-4 minutes per side. Let cool slightly; thinly slice crosswise. Serve warm or chilled.

Serves 8.

Great with warm tortillas!
