Key Lime- Grilled Chicken


I really enjoyed this recipe. It's was full of flavor and we just had it on top of rice. Hope you enjoy it like we did.


Key lime Sauce:
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
1/4 cup key lime juice
1/4 cup chili sauce
2 tsp all-purpose poultry seasoning mix

Ingredients:
4 lbs chicken pieces (breasts or thighs)
1 Tbl all purpose-poultry seasoning mix

Set up grill for direct cooking over med. heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.
To prepare Key lime sauce, melt butter in a small sacuepan over med. heat. Stir in lime juice, chili sacue and 2 tsp poultry seasoning mix. Cook for 1 min. Remove from the heat; set aside.

Season chicken with 1 Tbl poultry seasoning mix. Place chicken on the hot, oiled grill and cook for 18-22 min perside, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, basting with Key lime Sauce every few min until the last 2 min of cooking. Discard any remaining sauce.
Makes 4 servings

Tip: To cook indoors, preheat broiler. Prepare chicken and Key lime sacue as directed. Place chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet or broiler pan. Broil chicken 6-8 inches form the heat source for about 15-20 min per side, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, basting with Key lime Sauce every few min until the last 2 min of cooking. Discard any remaining sauce.
I used the George Foreman Grill.
