1 teaspoon finely shredded lime peel
1/3 cup lime juice
3 tablespoons cooking oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme or basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1. Place chicken breast halves in a resealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish. For marinade, stir together lime peel, lime juice, oil, thyme, pepper, salt, and garlic. Pour over chicken; seal bag. Marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes (if you have time a couple hours is better).
2. Preheat broiler. Drain chicken, reserving marinade. Place chicken on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat about 6 minutes or until light brown.
3. Turn chicken and brush lightly with reserved marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. Broil for 6-8 minutes more or until chicken is no longer pink. If desired, serve with salsa and lime wedges.
