Citrus Chicken

I love, love, love cooking and baking! So I decided that I should share this love with the world and start a recipe blog! I hope it is a fun time and that people will enjoy the recipes just like I do!

Here's the first one!

Citrus Chicken
Ingredients
1 large orange
1 large lime
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3/4 cup Italian dressing
fresh cilantro

Directions
Place chicken in large ziplock bag. Grate orange and lime peel into the bag. Add the juice of the whole orange and half of the lime. Save the other half of the lime! Coursely chop cilantro and add to bag. Add the Italian dressing and let marinate for at least 30 minutes but up to 12 hours. Remove the chicken and place on a hot grill. Grill until juices run clear and chicken is white all the way through. Squeeze the left over lime juice on top of the chicken right before removing from the grill! You can garnish this with some cilantro if you are obsessed with it like I am!

I hope you enjoy this recipe and return to my blog often to check up on fun and new recipes to come!
