ingredients

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
8 cloves garlic, finely minced
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 chicken breast halves with skin and bones
parsley or cilantro sprigs for garnish

directions

Combine lime juice, oil, and garlic in a large zip-lock style plastic bag. Season chicken generously with salt and pepper and add to the bag; seal carefully. Marinate chicken at least 2 hours at room temperature and up to 24 hours in refrigerator, turning several times.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Remove chicken from marinade (discard marinade) and arrange skin side up in a shallow baking pan. Do not crowd. Roast in upper third of oven until just cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Increase oven temperature to broil.

Set chicken about 2 inches from heat until skin is crisp, about 2 minutes.

  1. LearningCook REVIEW:

    Nice light flavor, very good. The marinade also made the chicken wonderfully moist. I don't cook that often with bone in chicken but this seems like a really good way to cook it.

  2. ab REVIEW:

    I made this for a family having to eat gluten & dairy free and low sodium. I replaced the salt and pepper with Trader Joe's "21 Salute" seasoning. I was surprised at how tasty this came out!
