Ice-cold lemonade? Oh my gosh, yes.

Storing Leftovers (If There Are Any!)

Pop any leftover chicken and veggies into an airtight container. They'll keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Okay, so maybe you're feeling a bit adventurous? Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken rub for a little kick.

Or, go full Mediterranean with oregano, feta, and Kalamata olives. You know? And for my vegetarian friends, you can totally use chickpeas instead of chicken.
