Chicken
- Toss the chicken strips with the pure maple syrup and lime zest and juice, and marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour in the fridge.
- Once the chicken’s marinated, put a pan on medium heat, and cook chicken in its liquid for 10 – 15 minutes, stirring frequently until it’s completely cooked and the sauce is thickened. Coat the chicken well with sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
