Pucker up for these citrus dishes
Bright flavours pack a punch in this summery menu
It’s impossible to deny the appeal of the tart, summery flavours found in lemon, lime, orange and grapefruit. We’ve woven the versatile flavours of citrus throughout this menu, from a light appetizer to a not-too-sweet dessert.
Our Citrus Salsa packs a punch, thanks to tart grapefruit and lime wedges, and spicy jalapeno slices. Serve with tortilla chips as an appetizer, or as a topping for grilled chicken or fish.
Our Lemon Scented Orzo is a simple side dish featuring the bright flavours of the lemon to keep it from feeling too heavy. It’s the perfect foil to our sticky-sweet Honey and Lime Glazed Chicken — make sure you have napkins handy!
Last but not least, our Berry Citrus Squares are a delicious way to end our ode to citrus, and are a celebration of summer fruits. They can easily be made ahead, so you can spend more time entertaining your guests. ATCO Blue Flame Kitchen’s column on healthy eating for busy families runs each Wednesday.
