Put the defrosted chicken pieces into the juice mixture, ensuring that all pieces get properly coated with it. Cover the bowl with a lid and put it in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.

Love, a word that represents so much yet tends to leave us hollow. For as long as man has come into being, and even before that, love has existed. The first evidence of a man-woman love that humanity knows of is Hazarat Adam (AS) [Adam] running around and praying to the Lord to find Hazarat Amma Hawa (AS) [Eve]. Their love was pure and unadulterated of any ulterior motives. Finding that kind of love seems impossible in today’s world. Why? Because we all have come to be selfish in one form or the other. The sense of being satisfied with what we have is gone, we tend to look for things that aren’t there or for that matter, are not right for us. There are many other reasons as well which we will discuss and debate over in Pink.
We all remember that moment when our stomachs curled up on the inside, we went weak in the knees and longed for breath when we fell in “love” for the first time. Quite a few of you would be going through that these days as well. Is that really love or mere infatuation? That we will try and explore in this section of Pink. We will volunteer our own experiences and we will also take in your queries and try to give to you the best possible advice that we can while ensuring complete privacy of your identity.
Write to us at [email protected] with one and all of your queries.
Till then remember, what we want isn’t always what we need.
Happy reading! Stay Pink!!
