This recipe from the Florida Keys has been given to almost everyone I know. It is the best marinade for chicken, and it only takes 30 minutes from prep till you can grill! It's a great blend of flavors with honey, soy sauce and lime juice.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons Soy sauce

1 tablespoon Honey

1 tablespoon Vegetable oil

1 teaspoon Lime juice

1 teaspoon Chopped garlic

4 Skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Preparation

In a shallow medium dish, blend soy sauce, honey, vegetable oil, lime juice and garlic. Place chicken breast halves into the mixture.Marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes.Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate. Place marinated chicken on the prepared grill. Cook 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until meat is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Amazing marinade and flavor. Not sure how "Key West" it was though.

I marinated the chicken for about 3 hours. This was the easiest, moistest, most flavorful chicken I think we've ever had. I would highly reccommend it!
