The Plethora of Peppers
Our lime tree is so full of limes it's drooping to one side. I also have a ton of red chili peppers in a pot, so I marinated some chicken to use some of it up.

Prep: 3 hrs
Cook: 15 mins
Yields: 6 Servings

Ingredients

6-8 chicken thighs

3 Tbs olive oil

2 Tbs green onions, minced

1 garlic clove, minced

1 red chile pepper, minced

4 Tbs fresh lime juice

1 Tbs chili powder

1½ tsp cumin

salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1Combine all ingredients except chicken in a large zipper bag. Add chicken, turn to coat well. Refrigerate and marinate for about 3 hours or so.

2Heat grill to medium high. Remove chicken and discard remaining marinade. Grill chicken 4-5 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear. This works well on an indoor or outdoor grill, but I wouldn't recommend baking it. If you absolutely can't grill it, you might get away with searing it in a skillet.
