Garlic Lime Chicken Breasts - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
4 chicken breast halves, rinsed and patted dry (2 lbs. total, with or without skin)
lime wedge

Preparation

Whisk together lime juice, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
Add chicken, turning to coat. Marinate chicken, covered and refrigerated, turning once or twice, for at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
Put a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees.
Remove chicken from marinade (discard marinade) and arrange skin side up, without crowding, in a shallow baking dish.
Season with salt and pepper. Roast until just cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
If chicken has a skin, turn oven to broil. Broil chicken about 2 inches from the heat until skin is crisp, about 2 minutes.
Serve with lime wedges.
