Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 chicken breasts
⅓ cup white rum
⅓ cup fresh mint, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped/crushed
1 teaspoon rock salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 limes, plus 1-2 more for garnish
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthways.
  • Put all of the ingredients into a ziplock bag and stir them all about so everything is coated and mixed up.
  • Marinate for at least 4 hours, but try to leave them over night if you have the time.
  • Cook the chicken as you usually would, we used a griddle pan on a medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side, but these can go in a regular pan, the oven or even on the BBQ!
  • Don't forget to give it one last squeeze of lemon juice to give it that extra kick!
  • Enjoy!

I'm going to try this recipe with fish next time. I think it would be just as good, if not better.

I served this chicken with a side of grilled vegetables and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts for this recipe and they turned out great. I think it would also be good with bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts.

I marinated the chicken for 24 hours and it was incredibly tender and flavorful. I would definitely recommend marinating the chicken for as long as possible.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was so flavorful and juicy, I couldn't get enough of it.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of chicken breasts on the weekend and then used them to make this dish during the week.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. I can just throw everything in a bag and let it marinate for a few hours, then grill it up. It's perfect for a busy weeknight meal.

Meh. I wasn't really impressed with this recipe. The chicken was bland and the marinade didn't do much for it.

This is my go-to recipe for chicken. It's so easy to make and the chicken always comes out juicy and flavorful. I love that I can use the marinade for other dishes too, like grilled vegetables or fish.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavor was still good. I think I might try marinating it for longer next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out perfectly. It was moist and tender on the inside, with a crispy golden-brown skin on the outside. The mojito marinade gave it a wonderful flavor that everyone loved.
