Notes & Suggestions

And there you have it, your coriander and lime marinated chicken is ready :-) I told you this recipe was easy and quick! Make sure your pan is oven-safe, like these ones! Otherwise, use a baking dish to cook the chicken in the oven. Know that you can also grill the chicken if you like that type of cooking. You can choose boneless chicken like here, but this recipe is equally delicious with chicken breasts, thighs, or wings.
