Fiesta Lime Chicken

Fiesta Lime Chicken is yummy and delcious. It's by far my favorite meal at an Applebee's/TGIFriday's/Chilis type of restaurant.

Ricci called up after work today to see if Andrew and I wanted to go out to eat. Andrew had already eaten, but I had just gotten home so Ricci and I went out. My first suggestion was IHOP since it's right across the street, but Ricci wasn't up for breakfast food. Our next potential stop was Chipotle and I said how I like the lime flavored rice. Then that reminded me that I had recently saw an ad for Applebee's and really wanted Fiesta Lime Chicken.

Ricci thought he had seen an Applebee's from the highway, so we got on the highway and looked for it, but didn't see it by the time we had gotten to Winchester Blvd. So we got off and I called Andrew to look up where the closest one was. In the meantime Ricci and I got back on the highway and just as Andrew was telling me there's an Applebee's on Saratoga we saw it. Clearly, I should not have doubted Ricci's ability to see a restaurant from the highway. After we got inside I saw they had a special shrimp and steak dinner which was very tempting, but I decided I had come for the Fiesta Lime Chicken, so that's what I got.

A big part of the goodness of the Fiesta Lime Chicken is in the small, colored, wavy tortilla pieces that come with it. Unfortunately, when our plates came out they were pretty skimpy with the tortillas, so when the waitress came back Ricci said "So this usually comes with more tortillas" and the waitress brought us back a good sized bowl of the tortiallas. w00t.

On a side note it was slightly amusing that one of the ads during the basketball game they were showing was for Chilis.
