Dinner doesn't get any easier than this! Throw the ingredients into a bowl or Ziploc bag, let the chicken soak it up all day, and grill for dinner. The honey adds a delicious sweetness that my kids LOVED and they devoured this chicken! I used the leftovers on a green salad the next day and it was just as delicious.
So if you need a quick and easy dinner idea, I highly recommend you try this!
Honey-Glazed Grilled Chicken
Ingredients:
4-5 chicken breasts, thawed
8 oz Italian dressing (I used Wishbone Robusto Italian- my favorite!)
1/4 cup lime juice (fresh is best)
1/2 cup honey (you could use agave, but I am a honey lover)
Directions:
Mix the dressing, juice, and honey together in a bowl or Ziploc bag. Place chicken breasts in marinade and let sit in the fridge for 5-8 hours (the longer, the better!). Grill over medium high heat about 6-7 minutes on each side (or until no longer pink in the middle).
If you want to make this chicken but don't have a grill, check out this post over at Everyday Sisters for their version that is made on the stove top!

My kiddos & I split honey grilled chicken & rice at the mall when we have lunch there, & they devour it. So I've been searching & searching for a recipe to make it at home. Thank you so much for posting this one; I can't wait to try it!!
ReplyDeleteI used the juice and zest of one whole lime, and half brown sugar / half honey. It was DELICIOUS!!!
