Margarita Chicken

Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 1/2 cup margarita mix
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 fresh garlic clove, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 -6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • lime wedges and cilantro (to garnish)

Recipe

  • 1 pound chicken breasts to even thickness. this is important!
  • 2 combine all ingredients in a blender except chicken.
  • 3 pour marinade over chicken and let sit in the fridge for at least 1 hour, up to 24 hours.
  • 4 preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  • 5 grill chicken breasts for 7-8 minutes per side, turning once. since the thick parts have been flattened, the whole breast should develop a nice, caramelized texture without drying out.
  • 6 remove from grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes. slice for fajitas, or serve whole with lime wedges and cilantro.
