Rosemary Lime Grilled Chicken is so juicy and tender ! The Chicken is marinated in Lime and Rosemary and grilled perfectly – low-fat and healthy.
Grilled chicken is such a versatile meat to use in so many different ways. This Rosemary and Lime grilled Chicken can be served as is, sliced into a salad for a light dinner. On a burger and just about however else you can think of.
Because this chicken is so tender and juicy, I normally serve it as is with mashed potatoes and sides or salads.
I actually prefer meat (chicken or any other) without a gravy/sauce as I think that changes the flavor of the meat way too much.
This time I cooked mine, once again, on my George Foreman griller and it literally took a few minutes to cook to just the right degree.
Whether you cook these on a griller or over the coals, do brush the fillets as much as you can with the leftover marinade – it really does make a difference.
How would you serve this kind of grilled Chicken fillet ? As a burger, in a salad or do you have a totally different idea in mind ?

LOVE lime! This looks delicious - I probably would slice it thin and serve it in romain lettuce on a wrap! Thank you, as always, for sharing with us on Merry Monday! We'll see you tonight! x Julia

I think this looks perfect just the way it is! I'd serve just like this with a side or two.
