Ingredients:  
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 limes, juiced (approx. 4 TBSP juice)
1 tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. sea salt
½ tsp. ground black pepper
⅛ tsp. cayenne pepper
½ c. chopped fresh cilantro

Directions:
In a large mixing bowl or large Ziploc bag, combine the chicken breasts, freshly squeezed lime juice, ground cumin, sea salt, ground black pepper, cayenne, and fresh cilantro. Toss to combine and coat the chicken well.

Cover with plastic wrap (or close Ziploc bag tightly) and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2-3 hours, to allow the marinade to work.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil. Remove the chicken from the fridge and place in the hot oil. Cook the chicken until well-browned on both sides and cooked through, about 4-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken reaches 165º internal temperature.

Allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
