Hi! I’m excited to try some of your recipes. We do not normally eat chicken breast and I’m curious if I would use the same recipe amounts for boneless skinless thighs? Thanks!
Yes, I think the cooking time will be similar and they will taste delicious!
Thanks! I am wanting to try the Spicy Garlic Lime! I LOVE this member site! It is so easy to find recipes. You’re amazing!
I just got a ninja foodie. All your grill recipes shouldn’t be a problem with this right? I have some things in the freezer and plan to do more this weekend. I really don’t want to have to buy a outdoor grill too lol
Get a George Foreman grill. It’s an indoor griller. We’ve used one for more than 10 years.
My husband and I absolutely loved this lime chicken❤️ It was delicious. I did squeeze the lime juice out and used the zest of 3 limes. I know your not supposed to let stuff set for too long in acidic juices, but this turned out. It was sooo good.❤️
