Notes<\/h3>\n

Preparing to do a 5 ingredients or less series for those who have limited ingredients on hand, but don\u2019t want to sacrifice quality or flavor. I started creating 5 ingredient dishes after receiving the 3-ingredient cookbook as a gift. The beauty of fewer ingredients is that each one has a chance to stand out. Bonus: its amazing on your wallet. If this is you, keep scrolling!<\/p>\n

Installment 1 is this very easy chili lime chicken. Marinade your chicken overnight to highlight the bursting flavors. Marinade can be done with other proteins, such as salmon, duck or even tofu.<\/p>\n
