  • With a wire whisk, slowly add the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, orange juice, and lime juice.

  1. WOW we just loved this chicken! Perfect combination of spices with enough juice/vinegar to make the chicken tender and juicy. We used boneless, skinless breasts and marinated for about 12 hours, then grilled. Great recipe - thanks for sharing it! Made for Fall PAC 2009
