The pepper lime chicken was very tasty. Serve with a lime wedge and salsa to make the flavor burst in your mouth!
Yesterday I decided to have a little fun in the kitchen. I had 10 chicken thighs and a lot of limes. While I whipped up my pepper-lime marinade I started thinking about mixing a bunch of spices together instead. So I split my batch of chicken — half went into the lime marinade and the rest tossed in a spice concoction. The result was a tasty dinner with steamed broccoli and cauliflower.
Below you’ll find the two recipes. While I really enjoyed the rub I made, I think I’ll use garlic salt and not real garlic next time. I ran out of garlic salt last week and forgot to pick some up over the weekend. The garlic added flavor, but burned in the oven. Also, I think I want to double up on the red pepper flakes to add a bit more heat.
