When the temps start dipping, it’s only natural that I get obsessed with my grill. Trying to squeeze as much grill-time in as possible before I cover it up one last time for the season.
That being said, I’m a huge fan of marinating meats and cooking them outdoors… and this dish is a new one in my rotation, officially as of this week!
A recipe with honey, lime, and SRIRACHA in the title… it definitely caught my attention. I was able to marinate the meat overnight and quickly grill it up on Monday afternoon for a fast and easy dinner… full of flavor!
Despite having sriracha in the name, this dish is more flavorful and less spicy… fear not, those who are not spicy fans! If you’re a huge fan of sriracha and are looking for an extra kick of heat, add a little extra.
