Fajita Marinade

• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tbsp lime juice
• 4 cloves of garlic (Minced.)

• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

1. In a bowl, mix all the marinade ingredients until well combined. Add the chicken and coat it evenly in the marinade. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours, or 6–8 hours for deeper flavor. Cook over high heat until nicely charred and fully cooked through.
