Chicken spiced with garlic, cilantro & lime and oven roasted. This flavor packed zesty chicken goes great in burritos, tacos, bowl, and salads and is done all in one pan in under 30 minutes! 
One pan meals never get old. I’ve got a few one pan dinners on my dinner routine and this cilantro lime chicken is a dish we make at least once a month. It’s easy, quick and always full of flavor and delicious. You can never go wrong with cilantro & lime and the addition of garlic and spice makes this chicken even better.
We like to serve this cilantro lime chicken with a side of rice or in burritos. If you’re on a diet, ditch the carbs all together and serve it on a fresh salad and top with my famous healthy creamy avocado cilantro lime dressing and enjoy a filling low-fat, low-carb meal without sacrificing flavor.
