This really good. I was a little concerned that the lime and lemon juice might "cook" the meat through denaturation, but I marinated for 16 hours and while i could see where the "cooking" had started, the end product was super flavorful and not tough at all. I served with mango salsa over rice

This really is unbelievable chicken. I loved, loved, loved this simple recipe. The marinade flavor really comes through in the finished product. I marinated mine overnight and then threw the chicken on the grill when I got home from work. So easy.

Oh boy - great chicken! I also boiled down some of the marinade to glaze the chicken while grilling. Loved the sweet and tangy flavor of this - thanks for sharing a great recipe! Made for the Best of 2010 Event (recommended by AZPARZYCH)

This is really good!! I got this recipe emailed from allrecipes as well and have been saving it for a while. Made as directed, had to broil the chicken because the grill was covered in snow. I kept the marinade and boiled it on the stovetop and reduced it down to a glaze and basted the chicken frequently. Will make again when I can grill it. Made for Healthy Choices Feb 2010.
