Pepper Lime Chicken image

This comes from Better Homes & Gardens (celebrating the promise) I really like this chicken hope you do too! It has you broil it but I usually just bake at 350 for about 30 min. It also calls for 6 chicken breasts but can be reduced I usually only make about 3 due to my family size. Prep time is also marinating time.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the marinade.
