Dedicating this dish to the
great man: Alan Turing! Please read
more about him after the
recipe.
This easy to fix chicken
with a splash of lime is a wonderful way
to celebrate a beautiful
end of summer evening.
Lime serves as an unexpected
treatment on a chicken dinner.
Even with the fruit costing 50 cents
a piece, it is a small splurge
for such a great flavor.
Ingredients:
2
to 3 lbs chicken thighs
1
small can frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
⅓ cup
Soy Sauce
½
tsp Celery Salt
⅛ tsp
Garlic Powder1 clove of garlic minced fine
2 limes – 1 zested and and squeezed, the other sliced thinly
Garnish
With Sliced Limes & Cilantro
Directions:
Mince
a clove of garlic
Zest
one lime and squeeze the juice into the mix. Slice the other thinly.
In
a medium bowl, blend together limeade concentrate, soy sauce, celery
salt, lime zest, and garlic powder. (It will turn dark as soon as
you add the soy sauce.)
Push
the chicken pieces into the sauce while you Preheat the oven to 375
degrees.
When
oven is ready, spray a 9 x 13 baking dish and place the pieces in so
they don't touch. Spoon the sauce over each.
Bake
about 60 minutes,
basting occasionally throughout cooking time.
If
you like a thicker sauce, add 1 tbs of cornstarch to the mix and
heat. Stir until this reaches desired consistency.

Please
allow me to introduce you to an icon in computers. A man who did so
much for his country and was so brutally treated afterwords:
Alan
Turing
He created the first computers and first computer programs. After the war, Turing created the first detailed design of a “stored-program” Computer. While most of his work was top secret, it was found out that Turing was gay!
1n 1952, he admitted to having had sex with another man and was convicted.
The court ordered him to undergo injections of female hormone to “cure or lower his sex drive”. These not only made him impotent and caused him to grow female type breasts, the injections also induced physiological disturbances.
In spite of the horrific damage being done to his body & mind, he continued his work. Turing was a founding father of modern cognitive science. He thought of the human brain as a digital computer. Turing theorized the cortex at birth is an 'unorganized machine' which through 'training' becomes organized 'into a universal machine or something like it'.
He pioneered what is now referred to as Artificial Intelligence.
Turing
worked on what would now be called Artificial Life, using a
computer to model aspects of biological growth, in particular a
chemical mechanism by which the genes of a zygote could determine the
anatomical structure of the resulting animal or plant. In the middle
of this groundbreaking work he was found dead.
In
1954 The coroner ruled cyanide poisoning. It was assumed a
suicide but it could have been accidental or otherwise. A news
release claimed he had eaten an apple that had cyanide on it but no
tests were made. The man who had saved the United Kingdom had become
an embarrassment to the Crown. He was now gone.
Just last year a movie about Alan Turing: “The Imitation Game” with Benedict Cumberbatch brought his story to the world.
Remember
next month, October is LGBT History Month!
