- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- Juice of 1 lime

- Juice of 2 oranges
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken breasts in a zip-close bag or bowl. Pour in marinade (reserve some for later). Ensure chicken is fully coated and refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight.
