About Lime garlic chicken

Lime Garlic Chicken is a flavorful dish combining tender chicken with a zesty marinade of fresh lime juice, garlic, olive oil, and a hint of honey or spices for balance. Popular in Latin-inspired and Mediterranean cuisines, this dish highlights bold, citrusy flavors with a savory twist. The chicken is typically grilled, baked, or pan-seared, providing a lean source of protein. Its health benefits include being lower in saturated fat when prepared with skinless chicken and using heart-healthy olive oil. Lime juice adds a dose of vitamin C, while garlic offers potential antioxidants. However, watch for added sugars or sodium in certain marinades. Versatile and nutrient-rich, Lime Garlic Chicken pairs well with vegetables and whole grains for a wholesome, balanced meal.
