I like plain old lemon chicken the best, to be honest!. Just marinade some skinless boneless chicken breasts in lemon juice and EVOO (3:1), sprinkle some lemon pepper and paprika on top, and broil for ten mins on each side!. You can also make an oven fried version of this by breading the chicken breasts with some italian bread crumbs and baking in a casserole dish drizzled with melted butter (oven at 475, 20-25 mins, turn halfway)!.

Chicken fajitas are also very good!. Just marinade in 2 Tbsp lime juice, 1/2 Tbsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 1/4 cup EVOO, 1/4 cup fresh snipped cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste!. Then you grill them along with some slices of red onion!. Serve on warm tortillas with lettuce, shredded cheese, chopped tomato, grilled red onion, sour cream, etc!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
