Grilled Chicken with Basil Pesto

Ingredients

• ​2 large (8 oz. each) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, rinsed and patted dry, tenderloins removed
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt
• Cracked black pepper
• 1/4 cup Traditional Basil Pesto

Directions

1. Slice each chicken breast horizontally to form 4 thin chicken filets.
2. Drizzle chicken with lime juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper; let stand 10 to 15 minutes.
3. Preheat grill to MEDIUM-HIGH heat or GRILL ZONE (ORANGE).
4. Oil grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
5. Brush chicken with olive oil; place on grill.
6. Grill 1 1/2 minutes or until grill marks form.
7. Using tongs, rotate chicken 90° to make crosshatch grill marks. Grill 1 1/2 minutes or until second grill marks form.

9. Spread 1 tablespoon Traditional Basil Pesto over chicken and serve.
