Hot Honey & Garlic Cilantro Lime Chicken
Directions
- 1Cut chicken thighs into large bite-sized pieces. Place cilantro, garlic, lime zest, mayonnaise, chili powder, pepper, salt, cumin, cayenne, and honey into a blender or food processor; blend until a paste forms. Reserve two tablespoons for the butter. Mix remaining marinade with chicken and lime juice; toss to coat. Marinate for at least one minute, or overnight.
