Cilantro Lime Marinade

I love this recipe and it's so EASY!! It's great on chicken, I have never tried anything else with it, but I am sure it work on anything.

Cilantro Lime Marinade

1 Bunch of Cilantro(Chopped)
6 Limes
6 Cloves of Garlic(Diced- or however big chunks of garlic you want)
1 Tbs of Olive Oil
1 Tbs of Honey
Salt and Pepper to taste
4-6 Chicken Breasts

Cut up the Cilantro, add lime juice, diced garlic, olive oil, honey and salt and pepper.
Mix it up and pour over thawed chicken breasts. Let it marinate for 3-4 hours or longer. If you are in a hurry 1 hour works, it's just not as flavorful. So, try and marinate as long as you can. Once it has sat for a couple hours, fire up the grill and enjoy!!!!
