EASY CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN RECIPE
All-star cilantro lime chicken recipe! Chicken thighs, prepared Mediterranean-style with a special spice mixture and cooked to tender perfection in a tasty garlic, lime and cilantro sauce. You can cook this in the oven (my preference) or in the slow cooker (see notes for instructions). Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are my preference here, but you can use boneless thighs or even chicken breasts if you like. (Note that cooking time will change, and I've listed all the details in the post.)
