Ingredients and instructions Applebee’s Chili Lime Chicken:
1 pound boned, skinned chicken breasts
Marinade the chicken in the mixture you have set aside for at least 2 hours. Overnight is best. Once marinated, grill the chicken for 3- 5 minutes on each side until it is cooked thoroughly. Discard the remaining marinade.
Brush the grilled chicken with some of the salad dressing, and then place the chicken on a bed of Tortilla chips. Next sprinkle the chicken and chips with shredded 1 cup of Colby jack cheese or to taste. Broil until the cheese has melted.
Dip in the dressing and enjoy. Warning, this dish can be spicy so use caution when serving to small children.
