CHIPOTLE LIME CHICKEN STIR FRY
I created this stir fry when my husband was on a chipotle kick. It is healthy with lean protien, fiber, and veggies. I've substituted baby corns for the canned corn with success as well. You could use fresh jalapenos instead of the canned chilis too! Make it as hot as you want with the chipotle pepper!
