    Prep 20 min. - Marinate 1 to 4 hrs. - Grill about 10 min.

    "This is a Southern California version of sweet and sour chicken, marinated and grilled with a little extra spice. Great for all barbeque lovers. I usually serve cut into lengths with fresh cilantro, homemade salsa, guacamole, black beans, and flour tortillas warmed on the grill. A little good Southern California karma never hurts anyone. This recipe is light enough to offset the first 2 margaritas. GO CHARGERS!!!"

    Ingredients:
    2 oranges, zested and juiced
    2 lemons, zested and juiced
    2 limes, zested and juiced
    1 teaspoon ground coriander
    1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/4 cup wildflower honey

    6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to about 3/4-inch thickness
    salt and pepper to taste

    Directions:
    1. Stir the orange zest, orange juice, lemon zest, lemon juice, lime zest, lime juice, coriander, red pepper flakes, olive oil, and honey together in a shallow dish. Remove about 1/4 cup of the mixture and set aside for later. Add the chicken breasts to the remaining marinade, turning to coat both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, turning occasionally, 1 to 4 hours.

    2. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade; discard the marinade.

    3. Basting frequently with the reserved sauce, cook the chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
