Chicken and vegetables

It's summertime and this recipe is so flavorful it actually makes you smile just eating it. Because that's what your food should do for you, it should bring you joy. I have made this recipe using lemons instead of limes and parsley + oregano instead of cilantro and IT STILL WORKS.

Hope you love this dish as much as I do, let me know in the comments!
