Method

Prepare Chicken

1

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, combine olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Grill the Chicken

Preheat the grill to medium-high. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
