It's spicy!
Ingredients:
1 (10 ounce) jar green hot jalapeno jelly
1 (6 ounce) frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
5 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
1 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves
6 (4 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
18 green onions, cut to 6 to 10-inch lengths
lime wedge (to garnish)
Directions:
1. For marinade: place hot jalapeno jelly, limeade concentrate, garlic and cilantro in a food processor or blender and process until pureed. Place 2/3-cup mixture in small serving bowl, cover and refrigerate until serving time.
2. Place remaining marinade in a non-metallic dish or resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, turn to coat evenly. Cover or close bag and marinate in refrigerator at least 30 minutes or as long as a day.
3. Preheat grill and lightly coat with oil or cooking spray. Remove chicken from marinade. Place marinade in small saucepan and heat just until boiling. Set aside to use for basting chicken. Place chicken on prepared grill 4 to 6 inches from source of heat. Grill 10 to 12 minutes, or until no longer pink inside, turning once and basting with marinade. Place green onions on grill and cook about 7 to 10 minutes until well browned, turning and basting with marinade. Remove chicken and onions to serving platter and garnish with lime wedges if desired.
4. Serve with reserved sauce.
