1.5 lbs (680g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breasts)
¼ cup olive oil

Zest + juice of 2 limes
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp smoked paprika

👩🍳 Instructions

1. Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, whisk olive oil, lime zest/juice, garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and cilantro.

Coat chicken in marinade and let sit 15 mins (or up to 4 hours in the fridge).

2. Cook the Chicken

Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Remove chicken from marinade (reserve marinade) and cook 5-6 mins per side until golden and cooked through. Set aside.

3. Sauté the Corn

In the same skillet, add corn and cook 3-4 mins until lightly charred.

Pour in reserved marinade and simmer 1 min.

4. Assemble & Serve
