Mustard and Lime Chicken



The lovely Oprah featured this amazing recipe from Elana's Pantry. The recipe is featured with many other winners. If you haven't checked it out here, or Elana's Pantry you are in for a wonderful surprise. I made this with oven roasted cauliflower sprinkled in olive oil and salt, and gluten free pasta smothered in sauteed olive oil and salt.  The chicken was cut into chunks. Put it all together with the sauce and add a sprinkle of McCormick's Steak seasoning on top to make the flavors really pop and. . . wowsers. . . that was good!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (I subbed pomegranate juice here)
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper

Directions


Combine lime juice, cilantro, mustard, olive oil, chili, salt and pepper in a food processor. Pulse until ingredients are well combined. 

Rinse chicken breasts, pat dry and place in an 7-inch x 11-inch Pyrex baking dish. Pour marinade over chicken, cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 6 hours. 

Heat grill and cook chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until browned and cooked in the center.
