2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a bowl, mix the honey, lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated, and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
