Brianne's Citrus Cilantro Chicken

I have been browsing Pinterest for chicken ideas and combined two recipes that looked good. This was amazing and I think the entire family would love it!!! I surprised Adam and got a rave review! Serve in a quesadilla, as nachos, or on a salad.  I served mine with salsa, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, and tortilla chips.

Ingredients:
Chicken breasts (I used two)
1/4c. Olive oil
1 lime, juiced
zest from 1/4 of the lime
3-4 cloves crushed garlic
1/4 onion or 1 shallot, chopped
Cilantro, chopped  (I used roughly 1/8-1/4 cup)
1-2 tb. Honey (can be left out or substitute orange juice)
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions
1. Combine all ingredients except chicken in a bowl. Wisk.
2. Add to ziplock bag with chicken.
3. Marinate 2-20hrs.
4. Grill.
