If you are looking for a delicious and healthy recipe that is low in carbs and ideal for weight loss, then you have come to the right place. This chicken cilantro lime dish is not only easy to make but also packed with flavor and nutrients and it can be made on the fly in a skillet OR in a crockpot which is my preferred method so you can do otherwise while this tasty mexican inspired dish fills the house with the aroma of a Mexican restaurant.
This recipe is not only low in carbs but also perfect for those who are following the Weight Watchers plan. One serving of this dish contains only 1 WW point making it an excellent option for those of us with a weight loss goal.
The lime juice and cilantro add a zesty freshness to the dish that complements the spices and chicken perfectly. This recipe is also very versatile and can be served with a variety of side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
