4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 jar salsa verde, 12 oz.
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cumin
4 slices Pepper Jack cheese
Lime wedges, for serving
Directions:
Place chicken breasts into a sealable container. Pour lime juice, olive oil, salsa verde, black pepper and cumin over top. Place the lid on top and coat the chicken evenly. Place into the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour.
