7️⃣ Remove the chicken from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

8️⃣ Serve immediately and enjoy your sweet and tangy Honey Lime Grilled Chicken! 😊

📝 Notes: ◻️ You can also cook the chicken in a grill pan or bake it in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 20-25 minutes. ◻️ For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade. ◻️ This chicken pairs perfectly with a side of cilantro-lime rice or a fresh avocado salad.
