This dish is so good and so easy – the hardest part is having to wait for the chicken to marinade. I like to wrap them up in some tortillas with a good salsa and a little lettuce. Simple, healthy and delicious!
Tequila Lime Chicken
6 chicken thighs or 4 chicken breasts
2 limes (zest and juice)
1 cup cilantro
3 garlic cloves
1/2 cup tequila
salt & pepper
1 Tbs Avocado oil
In a blender puree the lime juice, zest from one lime, tequila, garlic and salt & pepper. Place the blend in a large zip lock bag along with the chicken. Marinate for 8 hours or overnight. Heat a grill pan on medium-high before adding the oil. Add the oil and remove the chicken from the marinade. In a separate small pot boil the remaining marinade for 5 minutes. Grill the chicken about 4 minutes on each side. Remove from the heat; toss in the marinade and slice for your tortillas. Top with salsa and any other toppings you like and eat! Delicious!!! Perfect for a Taco Tuesday!
Enjoy!

Thank you. Lighting can be a problem sometimes, I get so much of it in my house. It’s either all light or very little. Linda is so much more patient with the camera than I am… The dish however is so good!

Love that the chicken looks well cooked, still tender and golden crispy on the outside.
Great recipe and very well photographed as well

I’m going to try this today! Does the cilantro go in the blender for the marinade? That’s how I’m going to interpret it!
