Combine all ingredients except for the chicken breasts in a 1 gallon zip lock bag. Close the bag and squeeze the marinade around to mix.
Add chicken and massage the marinade into the meat until evenly coated. Close the bag and place it in a bowl in the refrigerator; marinate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
Preheat grill to high. Oil grill grates. Place chicken on the grill and spoon any remaining marinade from the bag on top.
Close lid and grill, for 2-3 minutes per side, turn just once.
Serve immediately with lime wedges.
