The aroma of the lime is so good, and when you cook it it fills the kitchen and people come-a-running. I accompany this with southwest-style rice.

Whisk orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, dried onion, oregano, cilantro, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Measure out 1/4 cup of the marinade and set aside. Pour remaining marinade into a resealable plastic bag, place chicken in the bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag.

Vegan Shepherd's Pie with Sweet Potato
This vegan shepherd's pie is comforting, healthy, delicious and really easy to make. You can also make it in batches to freeze and serve when you don't have much time to cook. We used lentils to make ours, but you could use chickpeas instead, if you'd prefer. Serve with fresh cilantro if desired.
Chicken Pad Thai with Peanut Sauce
I made this chicken pad Thai with peanut sauce for my wife on her birthday and she loved it. Make sure to pick up medium rice noodles.
Southern Dill Potato Salad
This creamy dill potato salad is the one my mother made for me as a boy growing up in Spanish Fort, Alabama. I know you will enjoy it! The best flavor is achieved when the salad is covered and placed in the refrigerator overnight.
