That sounds really good. I have my mother-in-laws birthday coming up. I will give it a try

This is an old favorite of mine... a great marinade for summer grilling.

Marinade:
juice of 3 limes
1/2 c orange juice
1/4 c vodka (optional)
1 c cilantro, roughly chopped
1 jalapeno, minced
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp ground black pepper

Reserve about 1/2 cup for seasoning veggies and basting. Use the rest to marinate chicken strips for 45 minutes. Cut onion and pepper slices, toss in a little marinade briefly (don't soak in marinade or the lime overpowers the veggie flavor).

Grill the chicken and veggies. Serve with whole wheat tortillas and reduced-fat grated cheese.
