Summer baking and cooking is here
The first peach cobbler of the season has been accomplished, this time with bonus blueberries.
Yesterday we had fantastic crockpot BBQ chicken sandwiches, on Hawaiian bread buns with cole slaw.
The day before, it was broiled chicken breast with lime, or as I've taken to calling it, margarita chicken. Really ridiculously easy (recipe to follow).
Fresh veggies are delish.
Each of these meals were followed by lemon freezer pie. Also ridiculously easy.
Margarita Chicken
2 T. honey
3 T. lime juice
2 T. lime zest, grated
1/2 t. cumin
1/3 c. tequila
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Preheat the broiler and position the rack a out 4 inches below the broiler. In medium bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, lime zest, cumin, and tequila. Dredge chicken breasts through the marinade to coat thoroughly. Broil for 6 - 8 minutes, turning once and basting several times. (Keep an eye on it, though. The pooled marinade caught fire on me a couple of times. However, the chicken did not and turned out fantastic.)
