Why I Love This Recipe


Ingredients You'll Need

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon sugar

To make marinade, in shallow glass or plastic dish, or resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix all ingredients except chicken.

Add chicken to marinade; turn to coat.


Cover dish or seal bag; refrigerate at least 30 minutes but no longer than 24 hours.


3. Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat.


Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade.
