Рецепт Spicy Glazed Chicken
It may be the beginning of August for you, but it’s the end of summer for us since school started today. We just came back from a working vacation to Massachusetts. I was visiting colleagues in Boston while my husband was at a conference in New Hampshire. (The kids came with me to work.)
When we weren’t working, we visited Portland, Maine, as well as Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and in Boston, the Kennedy Library, Harvard, and the North End. (When things calm down from the back to school craziness, I hope to write up some restaurant reviews.)
The best thing about chicken is that most people love it – except for my son, Nathan – and it’s very affordable. If you’ve seen the price of steak lately, you’ll be glad that you have a delicious and healthy grilled chicken recipe at your beck and call!
Holly suggest serving this with a green salad or grilled corn. A side of quinoa, rice or watermelon salad would be terrific, too!
