Traeger Chile Lime Chicken
This grilled chicken breast is so flavorful and juicy, you aren’t going to think about grilled chicken breast the same way ever again. Chicken breast seasoned so well, your family will ask for this one over and over. Or better yet, save yourself some time at lunch the next day by making enough for leftovers!
I love making this kind of chicken because it is one of those meals that can go with just about anything. One of my favorite ways to use this chicken breast is to take this and shred or chop it on top of a salad.
Adding this to a baked potatoand have a stuffed baked potato night. It is so easy and everyone loves that they get to decide what tastes best.

Should I use fresh or frozen chicken breasts?
Personally, I prefer to use fresh meat whenever possible because I think it tastes better. However, I do understand that sometimes you just can’t pass up those unbelievable deals in the grocery store.
Tips for Freezing Meat
When feeding my family, sometimes saving a lot of money is a good thing. When I buy a lot of meat in bulk and the need to freeze is there, I do the following:
- Trim all the meat, removing any fat or grizzle
- Vacuum seal the meat for the best results.
- For short-term freezing, I put it in freezer bags and make sure to remove as much air as possible.
- Freeze in portion sizes that match your family size. You want single-use portions so you aren’t thawing too much.
