Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup Key West navel orange juice
  • 1/4 cup key lime juice
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp raw honey
  • 1 tsp roasted cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Combine orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and honey in a bowl
  2. Add cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to the marinade
  3. Place chicken in a shallow dish or bag and pour marinade over
  4. Ensure full coating, marinate 1 hour or overnight

Notes

Use olive oil from marinade to grease grill
Leftover marinade makes a refreshing dipping sauce or grain bowl dressing
Minced garlic is essential for bright flavor
