This 3-ingredient marinade is coming to the rescue when you can’t take one more bite of bland, boring chicken. Before that chicken goes on the skillet, the grill, or in the oven, douse it in this mega flavor (and still really healthy) marinade and your taste buds will be so happy.

Ingredients
Juice of 3 limes
1tablespoonchili powder
1teaspoonsea salt
1½poundschicken breasts or thighs
Instructions
Add all of the ingredients to a large bag or bowl (big enough to fit your chicken in).
Stir (or shake, if you’re using a bag) the marinade until it’s well mixed.
Submerge the chicken in the marinade and let it sit for at least an hour, or up to overnight.
Notes
For best results, marinate your chicken for 1-2 hours. Because this marinade includes lime juice, you’ll want to avoid marinating the chicken for any longer than that.
