Cinco de Mayo: Dish re-post 1

This post comes from September 2008. It is one of my favorite dishes. Please enjoy my Cilantro-Lime Chicken recipe.

I finally made one of my signature dishes again. I had planned to share this recipe a while ago but wanted to wait until I had a pictures ready to show the goodness. It is a light, tasty mix of cilantro, lime, and salt. The same base I use for my shrimp ceviche and fruit salsas. If you don't make any other dish from my blog, please make this one. You can click on the picture for a closer view.
