This smooth, juicy, zesty chili lime chicken is ideal for topping your salad! This smooth recipe takes just mins to prepare! ideal for a weeknight dinner!
Chili Lime bird Salad. some days just name for salad. but salad by no means virtually fills me up. I want a touch something greater with my salad. That’s wherein this chili lime hen is available in.
This fowl is bursting with flavor. and i may be completely sincere with you, if you don’t like lime, you probably gained’t like this chook. It honestly has a tangy lime taste to it. With a little pop of warmth from the chili powder. It’s the whole thing that it’s name might imply. but in case you’re like me and love the ones flavors then I assume this meal could be best for you!
