Lime and Pepper Grilled Chicken Breasts
We threw a few sliced fresh vegetables on the grill with this chicken, added thick corn tortillas, and enjoyed a tasty summer dinner.

I used a grill pan to prepare these they were pretty good, but I'm sure they would've been much better on an real charcoal grill; will do that way next time. Served with grilled zucchini, which is always good, in a grill pan or on a charcoal grill.
This is my family's all-time favorite grilled chicken recipe. It will become a family tradition. I would only recommend cutting back on the pepper a little bit if you don't want it too spicy.
Changes I made: I used agave syrup instead of sugar and did not add that much pepper. The taste is addictive. Don't overcook, but let them rest to finish cooking and they are juicy and taste very good without any sauces. Served with rice and frozen mixed vegetables (well, it WAS a weeknight).
Made this last night for dinner after searching for something to do with thawed chicken breasts. Threw all the ingredients together, not really measuring, as I wasn't in the mood for the 'formality'. These came out fantastic! The lime and the sugar make an awesome flavor combo. My husband couldn't stop raving and asked for them again tonight for dinner!
