Lime and Coconut Chicken
To grill a chicken breast is so easy in the summer, keeping your kitchen cool. But let's be honest, it can get a bit boring. Finally!!! a wonderful marinade which makes a delicious chicken breast, plus you boil up the remaining marinade to make a fantastic sauce for the chicken. This will definitely be on the menu again, and soon!
LIME AND COCONUT CHICKEN
2 pounds boneless, chicken breasts
3 Tbsp oil
zest of one lime
1 tsp ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 tsp kosher sauce
2 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp curry powder
1 cup coconut milk (I used light)
pinch cayenne
1 small fresh hot chili, such as Thai, Serrano, or Jalapeno, finely minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Fresh limes, cut into wedges
For the marinade, mix all ingredients except chicken, cilantro, and limes. Add chicken and marinade to a large bowl or ziploc bag and chill in the refrigerator 2-8 hours. Remove chicken from marinade and grill (works well in the skillet with just a bit of oil).
While the chicken is grilling, pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil. Boil continuously for at least 2 minutes, stirring occasionally so it doesn't burn. Sprinkle with fresh lime juice and cilantro. Serve with sauce on the side or drizzled over the top.
