I saw a recipe similar to this a while ago, and I had it stuck in the back of my mind.

Honey Mustard Chicken BLTs
These honey mustard chicken BLTs are a variant of the the BLT sandwich with the super yummy addition of blackened chicken breast, red onion and honey mustard mayo.

Flank Steak with Avocado Pesto and Charred Corn Relish

Grilled Chimichurri Chicken with Couscous Salad
This grilled chimichurri chicken with couscous salad was a perfect weeknight spring/summer meal.

As I usually do, I marinated the chicken overnight for maximumContinueContinue reading “Grilled Chimichurri Chicken with Couscous Salad”
