Chili Lime Chicken
Somehow summer has really gotten away from me! I took an unintentional vacation from blogging for the last month or two! We have been busy having lots of fun as a family and doing lots of cooking as well. We’ve had lots of great food, and I can’t wait to share some of those recipes with you soon! Lots of fresh and light recipes with food from our garden, as well as some yummy summery desserts for lots of birthday celebrations!
I wanted to quickly share this recipe with you because it is such a simple, easy and versatile recipe. I feel like all summer long I have been searching for things that are quick and easy so that we can keep up with all the fun outings and pool days and activities that the kids want to do. While at times I miss having the routine that allows me to prep meals and be creative earlier in the day, I’m embracing the summer fun and chaos because fall, school routines, and all of that, will be here before we know it!
I have made this recipe countless times both in the oven and on the grill and it always comes out great! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
