Ingredients:
3 lbs. boneless chicken breast
Healthy handful of cilantro
1 bunch of scallions
4 cloves of garlic - sliced
Drizzle of olive oil
Marinade:
Dashes of cinnamon
Dash of nutmeg
Dashes of cumin
2 tablespoons of vinegar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons of orange juice
Juice of 2 limes
Juice of 1 lemon
Combine the ingredients for the marinade and place the chicken breast in the marinade. Let this sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Heat the griddle or a large frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil and place the chicken on the heated griddle or pan. When the chicken has become a beautiful golden color on one side, turn it over. Place the cilantro, scallions and garlic on top of the chicken while it grills on the other side. Turn the chicken just once more to give the scallions, cilantro and garlic a quick grill. When the chicken has finished grilling on both sides, plate it. Place the grilled scallions, cilantro and garlic in the center for garnish.
This dish is tasty and is great for grilling.

Enjoy with Love and Blessings,

Catherine

    Catherine ~ you're killing me!!!! HaHa Ha

    Every morning when I come to your post, I'm just drooling all over my keyboard, and I haven't even had breakfast.

    This will be one I will try FOR SURE!!! Yumm... Loving the spices you are using and I just love the way you "drizzle olive oil".

    Have a great day...

    Cinnamon and nutmeg in the marinade. How unique. It looks like it would be unbelievably good. I love the citrus and cumin together too. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
