Free Range Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh Fillets

Ingredients

• 1 lbs Foster Farms Free Range Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh Fillets
• Juice of 1 Lime (about ¼ cup)
• ¼ Cup Honey
• ¼ Cup Olive Oil
• 1 Cup Sweet Cherries, Stemmed and Pitted (about 6 ounces)

• 1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt

Directions

Combine lime juice, honey, olive oil, cherries, jalapenos, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth.

Place chicken in a shallow dish and pour marinade over chicken thigh, turn to coat completely. Cover and refrigerate while you heat the grill. Marinate at least 15 minutes or up to overnight.

Heat grill to medium heat. Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip back into the dish. Grill chicken thighs until cooked through completely, turning once, about 15 minutes total until the center reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Serve immediately with rice and a green salad.
