SPICY LIME CHICKEN
I've been turning this spicy lime chicken into tacos for years, but it was my son Austin who put it on cooked rice with all his favorite taco toppings. A family favorite was created out of leftovers! -Christine Hair, Odessa, Florida

SPICY LIME POLLOCK - KETO VERSION
This dish has an excellent flavor and is quick and easy to make. Any fish filet works just fine for this recipe (flounder, tilapia, sole, pollack, haddock) and the combination of the high heat and the aluminum foil packets steams the veggies to perfection. I often put the packets together up to a day ahead of time, and pop them in the oven when I get home from work to let them marinate a bit. This is portioned out for my husband and I for a Keto diet (9 grams of net carbs per serving using USDA calculations, not sure why it's a bit higher here).

Tips:
- Choose the right fish: Pollock is a great choice for this recipe because it's a mild-flavored fish that takes well to spices. Other firm-fleshed fish that would work well include cod, haddock, or tilapia.
- Don't overcook the fish: Pollock cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
- Use fresh limes: Fresh limes will give your dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but it won't be as good.
- Adjust the spice level to your taste: This recipe calls for a moderate amount of spice, but you can adjust it to your liking. If you like things spicy, add more cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. If you prefer a milder dish, reduce the amount of spice.
- Serve with your favorite sides: This dish is delicious served with roasted vegetables, a side salad, or rice.
