Dinner Challenge: Week 2, continued

Yesterday I worked both jobs and worked a total of 14.5 hours. I worked from 7:15am til 9:45 at night.... so needless to say, home cooking did not happen. 

Today it almost didn't happen either. I was all ready to make tequila lime chicken. Maybe try to make my own rice. Then.... I never made it to the store to get limes. Kind of hard to make lime chicken with no limes. And I took a nap and wound up groggily half asleep from 3:30p until almost 7. Once again the temptation to order pizza was strong. 

Instead lady luck was on our side. I had chicken breasts in the fridge that were thawed. Thanks to the new gas grill, I was able to fire it up and know we could have dinner within 1/2 an hour. So it was Tomato Garlic Pesto marinaded chicken breasts on the grill and a creamy chicken rice side. 

I'm looking forward to after our wedding when I can start testing out the new rice cooker!
