A Little Spice in your Life

Now that we're back in grilling weather, I'm breaking out all my summer recipes. And I always love another way to prepare chicken.

Pepper Lime Chicken (I think I got this one from Caroline back in Japan...)

2-2 1/2 lbs. chicken
1/2 tsp shredded lime peel
1/4 C lime juice (one lime)
1 TBSP cooking oil
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp coarsely ground pepper
1 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp salt

Combine ingredients in a large Ziploc bag and rub marinade into chicken. Allow to stand at least 1 hour. Grill chicken.

I served this with cous cous and microwave veggies for a quick and easy dinner. The citrus and pepper and a great combination and can accompany almost anything.
