Fast & Easy Mojito Lime Chicken

This is a fast and simple way to make boneless, skinless chicken breast, for training days or off days and all phases. Prep time 5 minutes, cook time 10 minutes, serves 1–2.

Ingredients:

  • 1 packet "Grill Mates" Mojito Lime marinade (dry mix)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • apple cider or white vinegar
  • 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast

Directions:

  • Chop the chicken breast into 1–2 inch cubes. Add to a bowl or a 1-gallon zip-lock bag.
  • Add the marinade mix.
  • For training days: add 1/4 cup water and 2 tbsp vinegar. For off days: add 1/4 cup oil, 2 tbsp water and 2 tbsp vinegar.
  • Mix thoroughly.
  • Cook the chicken in a pan on high heat with the lid on, mixing every few minutes until fully cooked.

Notes: I use the "Grill Mates" marinades in different flavors depending on the side, and on off days or training days. This also works on the grill, and with other cuts of meat.
