Pesky weeds and wild plants may not be everyone's favorite thing. They're almost impossible to get rid of and they easily take over the yard. When planting a garden, a great deal of time and money goes into making plants grow, and the weeds, well those have to go. But wait, hold on! Did you know that many of those wild weeds are also edible?

In a large dutch oven or stock pot, heat oil over medium-high until shimmering. Add in the onions, bell pepper, chili powder, cumin, oregano, thyme, paprika and salt, and pepper. Cook until vegetables have softened, about 7-10 minutes.

In a mason jar or large ziplock bag combine the brown sugar, canola oil, soy sauce and white vinegar. Add the chicken to ziplock bag and cover with the marinade. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
