Grilled Chicken with Cilantro Lime Honey Butter is a delicious blend of flavors - Southwestern, Mediterranean & Jamaican with seasonings that can be used on any meat.

Ingredients:

• 4 chicken breasts - skinned and boned
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon coarse black pepper

4. Combine all ingredients (except chicken) in a small bowl and mix until well blended into a paste.
5. Spread the chili mixture all over chicken with spoon or basting brush.
6. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
7. When the grill is ready, thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers.
8. Grill chicken using medium heat for a gas grill or indirect heat for a charcoal grill.
