CRISPY HONEY LIME CHICKEN
Ingredients
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp grated lime peel
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp cinnamon
2 cups soft fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp canola oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Directions
Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line with non-stick foil.
Combine honey, lime juice, lime peel, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne and cinnamon in a pie plate; set aside.
Combine bread crumbs, parsley and oil in a separate pie plate.
Working with one piece at a time, dip chicken into honey mixture, turning to coat both sides. Place chicken in bread crumb mixture, pressing lightly so that crumbs adhere; turn to coat both sides. Place chicken in a single layer in prepared pan.
Bake, uncovered, until chicken is cooked through and coating is golden brown, about 25 - 30 minutes.
