Citrus Chicken Oh what a dish.
Not a lot to this dish but it turns out great citrus chicken the flavor is very nice. Kind of nice not having to do a lot of prep work for a dinner that is a winner.
Tonight we made it super simple by serving French cut green beans and Peruvian Style Chimichurri Rice with vegetables from Trader Joe’s.
Take the chicken and put thin slices of Orange, Lemon and Lime on top of the chicken and place it back in the refrigerator for a few hours.
Take the chicken out of the fridge and let it warm up a little. We’re talking about 15 to 45 minutes. Real cold meats dry out on the grill and there is a reason for it.
