    Jalapeno-lime Chicken,I was reading the intro of this recipe and realized that yes, now I have tried it and even posted a picture so I decided to update. This is an easy recipe that is heart healthy. The recipe was in an issue of Diabetic Cooking.,Delic. I added cilantro to the mix and a sprinkle of Cajun rub before putting them on the grill. Great flavors!,This was beyond AMAZING!!! I will admit that I did add some chopped up onion to it, but that is the only thing I changed. I was looking for something healthy to do with chicken breasts and happened to have a surplus of jalapenos from the garden so this was perfect! My husband absolutely LOVED it!!!
