Chili Lime Cilantro Chicken

Recipe from Rasa Malaysia.
Eric really liked this.  I am a little hazy on the instructions since I made it last week.

Ingredients: (halved from original recipe)
-Chicken (chicken tenders, 1.5 lbs for 4 servings)
-Olive oil (~2 tablespoons)
-1/4 cup Lime juice (also used for cilantro lime rice)
-Lime zest 
-Cilantro (~2 tablespoons chopped, but likely was a lot more)
-1 Jalapeno, chopped
-2 garlic cloves, chopped
-Honey (est 1/2 tablespoon)
-Salt
-Chili powder to taste

Directions:
1. Mix all for marinade with chicken in ziploc bag.  Marinate for 2 hours.
2. Grease baking dish and add veggies (chopped bell pepper and onion), add chicken on top.
2. Bake for about 20 min at 400 degrees.


Notes:
-Served with cilantro lime rice, half an avocado, and Eric made veggies (bell pepper, onion, zucchini combo he made up)

Notes, part 2:
Made again with more garlic (5 cloves) and added jalapeño salt, cumin.
He said it was bland. So, next time add more spices - jalapeño salt, cumin, and chili powder
Eric also wanted the chicken diced.
