Summer is almost over, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t keep enjoying summertime meals! I know this recipe is called caribbean chicken, but I have never been to the caribbean just Hawaii. Which, I must say is one of the most scenic places I have ever been to. I am sure the caribbean is too, and lets face it I would probably love anywhere that has warm sandy beaches and turquoise water. This recipe has all the island vibes, and I like that not only does it taste like I ordered this at some beach side restaurant somewhere tropical, but it’s so easy to make.
