"Adapted from a recipe in Quick Cooking, July/August 2002, I used fresh lime juice and added lime slices to my marinade and utilized fresh herbs as much as possible (dried will work). I also chose to grill the chicken to complete the "no muss - no fuss" feeling as it marinates the night before and grills up quickly! Everyone loved it! Try serving with grilled asparagus spears and roasted red potatoes!"
