Recipe View Remove the grilled chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.

For best results, use freshly squeezed Key lime juice. Bottled juice can be used in a pinch, but the flavor will not be as bright.
Adjust the amount of honey to your liking, depending on your desired level of sweetness.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can cook the chicken in a grill pan on the stovetop or bake it in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes.
Serve this grilled chicken with a side of coconut rice and grilled pineapple for a truly tropical meal.
