Mesquite Lime Chicken Mesquite Lime Chicken

Intriguingly complex flavors are the order of the day with this unique marinade for chicken. Grill Mates Mesquite Seasoning delivers true mesquite wood flavor in a special blend of seasonings and herbs while sweet honey keeps the tart lime in check. This is certainly not the same old thing!

Prep: 5 min - Marinate: 15 min - Cook: 15 min

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons McCormick Grill Mates Mesquite Seasoning
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breasts


1. Mix lime juice, mesquite seasoning, oil and honey in a bowl.

2. Add chicken, turning to coat well. Marinate in refrigerator 15 minutes, or longer for extra flavor.

3. Remove chicken from marinade and grill over medium heat 4-6 minutes per side or until done. Baste with remaining marinade halfway through cooking. Discard any leftover marinade.

Makes 6 servings

Serving Suggestions: For chicken club sandwiches, serve chicken on buns with melted Cheddar, slices of cooked bacon, tomato, lettuce and ranch dressing. Can also cut chicken into strips and serve over salad, or place in tortillas topped with cooked bell pepper and onion strips, and cheese for tasty quesadillas or fajitas.
