I’m ready for warm weather, ready to grill… on my new deck. With Cinco de Mayo tomorrow, I decided make things a bit festive (last night) with a semi-Mexican dish. Time for Lime Chicken…
Ingredients:
chicken breasts, 1/4 c. red wine vinegar, 2 limes, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 2 tsp. sugar, salt, pepper, handful of fresh cilantro, shredded lettuce (or mixed greens), diced tomatoes, sour cream, shredded Pepper Jack cheese
Directions:
Juice and zest lime, mix in vinegar, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper. Add chicken breasts and marinate for a few hours. Grill, sauté or bake chicken. Remove from heat and add cheese to melt. Add a squeeze more of fresh lime juice. Serve on a bed of shredded lettuce, top with diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro and a dollop of sour cream.
*Serve with your favorite rice side dish.
