Garlic Lime Chicken that's Paleo, Whole30, and Gluten Free. Can be easily made into a freezer meal!

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2-3 pounds)
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 lime, zest and juice
• handful chopped cilantro (about ¼ cup)
• 1 teaspoon chili powder (I use THIS)
• Sea salt & pepper, to taste
• 2 cups chicken stock or broth
• optional if you like it spicy: 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes or 1 finely diced jalapeño (seeds in or out depending on your spice level!)

Instructions

1. Add all of the ingredients in a large (gallon size) ziplock bag or container with lid.
2. Freeze for a freezer meal later or allow to marinate in the refrigerator overnight. If frozen, allow to thaw. Prepare as directed below:

For the Oven: Pour chicken and marinade into an oven safe dish and bake at 400 degrees F for 25-35 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees at the thickest part.

For the Slow Cooker: Pour chicken and marinade into a slow cooker and set for 8 hours on low or 4-5 hours on high

For the Grill: Grill just the chicken breasts over medium-high heat until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees at the thickest part.

For the Pressure Cooker or Instant Pot: Pour chicken and marinade into the pressure cooker and set for 15 minutes.
