Category: Healthy Recipes, Chicken, Main Dish

 Ingredients List

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • ½ cup good quality tequila (I love Camarena)
  • ¾ cup fresh lime juice
  • ½ cup fresh orange juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 T. Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime Seasoning Blend (If you don”™t have access to this, use 1 tps. Paprika, 1 tsp. cumin, and 1 tsp. salt)
  • 1 tsp. fresh black pepper
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 4 slices Ultra Thin Colby Jack Cheese
  • ½ cup Lite 3-Cheese Ranch (I used Kraft)

 Directions

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.
