Ginger Lime Chicken and Noodles will change EVERYTHING you may know and believe about Lean and Green Meals. Boring? Oh my no. Tasteless? My family put this as one of their top 10 favorites of all time. Time Consuming? Never.
If you know Stacey Hawkins, then you won't be surprised at how EASY this dish is and how flavorful the results- even with just a few ingredients.
The key to the intense flavor is the marinade. There's not a lot of it so it clings to the chicken beautifully and the acidity of the lime both tenderizes and flavors at the same time.
Placed over a bed of quickly sauteed zucchini noodles, or with a side of cauliflower rice, or even over a green salad, this yummy recipe is as beautiful as it is delicious. Give it a try this week!
Happy Cooking-
Stacey
