Pepper Lime Chicken

Adapted From: Real Good Recipes

This was such an awesome meal. I did not expect the chicken to have such a tangy, lime flavor. When is discovered the many dump chicken recipes I had planned on baking them. After the Peanut Butter Chicken incident, I think I will cook the chicken in the skillet from now on. This week we bought 5 lbs of chicken to be cut in pieces and cooked in various homemade sauces. This is such a quick and easy idea for the week nights and most sauces can be made with things you already have at home!
