Cilantro-Lime Chicken Thigh with Avocado/Tomato Salsa

Very, very yummy and fresh dinner! Got the chicken thigh recipe from The Mediterranean Dish, then added my favorite kind of side – avocados and tomato!

Ingredients
Chicken thighs
Garlic powder, paprika, black pepper
Cooking wine (vino seco)
2 tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 lime
Scallions, chopped
1 bunch of Cilantro, stemmed and chopped
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 Hass avocado
4 grape tomatoes
1 pinch of salt

{Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.}
Season each thigh on both sides with the garlic powder, black pepper and paprika. Heat the olive oil in a skillet and brown the chicken on both sides. Lower the heat (I missed this and almost burned myself with popping oil! LOL), and add the cooking wine and chicken broth. Let it all simmer, then squeeze in the lime juice, and throw in the garlic, scallions and cilantro. After a few minutes, I put the skillet in the oven to cook at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. When fully cooked, garnish with cilantro and serve with a side of avocado and cut up grape tomatoes [pinch of salt over it]. Fin! I hope you like it as much as we did! My husband gave it two thumbs up.

BBQ Pulled Pork Bowl & Pulled Pork Sandwiches for Memorial Day!

This was absolutely delicious! This crock pot we bought is worth every penny. Try it out!

Ingredients
2 lb. boneless pork Shoulder boston roast
1/2 cup to 1 cup barbecue sauce (depending on your preference)
Salt, pepper and garlic powder
1 tbsp brown sugar
3 grape tomatoes
1 hass avocado
2 egg knot buns (Publix bakery)

Season the pork with garlic powder and salt, and put it in the slow cooker along with the barbecue sauce. Set it to cook on low for 8 hours. Once the pork it done cooking, use a fork and knife to chop up the pork into shredded pieces. The bowl I ate is 5 oz of pulled pork, 3 chopped grape tomatoes, half of a Hass avocado, and a pinch of salt over the avocado. The sandwiches that my husband ate were 2 egg knot buns from Publix bakery, pulled pork, sliced avocado, and a pinch of salt.
