Active Time: 10 minutes

Serves: 2-4

Chicken breast marinated in a spicy, vinegary habanero sauce and baked to perfection

• Habanero: 5, cut in half
  
  
• Olive oil: 1/2 cup
• White vinegar: 1/4 cup
• Garlic: 6 cloves
• Salt: 2 tsp
• Cilantro: 1 tbsp
• Lime juice: 1 tbsp
  
  
• Chicken breast: 1-2 lbs

• This is extremely spicy. Tone it down by removing habaneros and ditching the seeds/ribs from the habaneros
• I generally cut the chicken breasts in half to make them thinner (this recipe works perfectly with two halved chicken breasts)

1. Roast habaneros on baking sheet at 400F until soft (~15 min)
2. Combine habanero, olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, cilantro, and lime juice in food processor and puree
3. Pour over chicken and let marinate in the refrigerator for 2h+
4. Bake chicken (with marinade) at 400F until done (~35-40 min)
