A lime-based marinade like this one is ideal for all sorts of Mexican recipes. Giving your chicken a few hours in this marinade will add some feisty flavor and keep the meat moist.

1/4 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar or fruit vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Combine the lime juice, vinegar, garlic, honey, coriander, and cumin in a glass or plastic bowl or zip-top plastic bag. Mix well.
Add up to 1 pound of turkey or chicken, mixing well to coat. Cover the bowl or seal the bag and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 20 minutes or up to 24 hours. Turn the poultry occasionally so the marinade saturates it evenly. Discard the marinade and cook the poultry as desired.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
