GRILLED TEQUILA LIME CHICKEN

The secret to this Tequila Lime Chicken (besides the tequila marinade…can’t go wrong with that!) is the three cheese ranch.  Hidden under that colby jack is a layer of three cheese ranch ready to knock your socks off.  Its a summer BBQ miracle. 

GRILLED TEQUILA LIME CHICKEN

INGREDIENTS

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup good quality tequila I love Camarena
• 3/4 cup fresh lime juice
• 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 T. Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime Seasoning Blend If you donâ??t have access to this, use 1 tps. Paprika, 1 tsp. cumin, and 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. fresh black pepper
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 4 slices Ultra Thin Colby Jack Cheese
• 1/2 cup Lite 3-Cheese Ranch I used Kraft

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a large bowl, mix tequila, lime juice, orange juice, garlic, fiesta lime seasoning blend, pepper, and cilantro. Place the chicken into 2 gallon sized ziplock bags (2 per bag) and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal in the fridge for 6-8 hours.
2. After marinating, take the chicken out of the bags and grill on medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until chicken is cooked through. Brush each chicken liberally with the ranch, and top with a slice of cheese. Allow the cheese to melt over the chicken before taking off the grill.
3. Serve with rice, fresh pico de gallo, and lime slices.
