How to Make Basil Lime Honey Ginger Grilled Chicken

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup Island Grove Key Lime Honey Ginger, 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts and marinate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight in the refrigerator).
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  3. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding excess marinade.
  4. In a small saucepan, bring the remaining marinade to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
  5. Place chicken on the preheated grill. Grill for 3-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165-170°F (74-77°C).
  6. Remove chicken from grill and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  7. In a separate bowl, gently toss 1 cup cooked rice with 1/2 of the prepared honey ginger sauce.
  8. To serve, plate sliced chicken over a bed of the honey ginger rice. Arrange sliced mango on top and serve with your favorite vegetable (e.g., grilled asparagus, steamed broccoli). Enjoy!
