Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Juice of 2 limes
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh coriander and sliced lime for garnish

Instructions
- Combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken breasts thoroughly in this marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to infuse the flavors.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill each side for approximately 6-8 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Ensure the chicken is slightly charred for an adventurous flavor.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander and lime slices for a fresh, vibrant finish.
Notes
- Marinate the chicken longer, up to 4 hours, for deeper flavor.
- Use a grill pan or oven broiler for indoor cooking when needed.
- Pair with colorful sides like grilled vegetables or tropical salads for a complete superhero meal.
