We all met back here for lunch and then we all went into the yard for some chores. I threw some more stuff on the veggie lasagna bed and Nick mowed while Jeff pulled lawn weeds.
Then, we had church @ 6. After church, we had chili lime chicken which went so fast I couldn't take a picture!! The following is courtesy of BettyCrocker.com!
Grilled Chile-Lime Chicken
Fresh-tasting and flavorful, this chicken is a party in your mouth!
| 2 | teaspoons grated lime peel |
| 1/4 | cup lime juice |
| 1/4 | cup olive or vegetable oil |
| 2 | tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
| 1/2 | teaspoon sugar |
| 1/2 | teaspoon salt |
| 1 | small jalapeño chile, seeded, finely chopped |
| 1 | clove garlic, finely chopped |
| 4 | boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 1/4 lb) |
| 1 . | To make marinade, in shallow glass or plastic dish, or resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix all ingredients except chicken. |
| 2 . | Between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place each chicken breast smooth side down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick. Add chicken to marinade; turn to coat. Cover dish or seal bag; refrigerate at least 30 minutes but no longer than 24 hours. |
| 3 . | Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Cover and grill chicken over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (170°F). |
I know lots of folks omit the peppers in their recipes, but this one really needs the jalepeno! It is wonderful! Even Nick ate it and he hates cilantro!
After dinner, I went in the basement and finished painting the bathroom and the kids and Jeff started to move Nick in his new room!!
You know he was sooo excited about that!!
