FAQs

Acids like fresh lime juice or lemon juice are perfect marinades for chicken breast and other meats because the acid in the juice naturally begins to break down the raw meat, pre-tenderizing it while injecting it with flavor.

Kevin's prepares this dish by marinating boneless skinless chicken breasts in citrus extract (extra concentrated lemon juice) and seasoning. The acidic lemon juice begins to break down the chicken, making the meat tender and also allowing the seasoning to penetrate the meat, leading to immaculately tasty and tender chicken even after you drain the remaining marinade.

While some taste buds are naturally averse to cilantro, those that enjoy this bright herb will love this fresh cilantro lime chicken recipe, where it elevates the delicious chicken and adds an entire dimension of flavor.

Widely and inventively used, cilantro pairs well with many types of meat and other vegetables. Mix it into a pesto; or top Kevin's Mashed Cauliflower with chopped cilantro. Kevin's grilled chicken is given a new flavor dimension in this scrumptious dish, as the herbaceous cilantro lightens and complements the flavors.

Baked cilantro lime chicken thighs or breasts (as is used here) is a popular dish and for good reason. However, cilantro does lose flavor as it is heated to high temps, so these recipes either require a marinade before cooking at medium-high heat or else topping with the herb just before you serve cilantro lime chicken. Kevin’s sauce has all the cilantro you need, so don’t worry with this recipe.
