Instructions

Mix the olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Marinate the chicken breasts in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken longer, preferably up to 2 hours or overnight. Can bake instead at 375°F for 25-30 minutes.
