Ingredients List
- 3 tbsps olive oil
- 3 tbsps tequila
- 3 tsps lime zest (you”™ll need 2 limes*)
- 4 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 1/4 tsps chili powder (ancho)
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1/4 tsp oregano
- 1 1/4 tsps salt (**)
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper (freshly)
- 2 tsps honey
- 2 lbs chicken tenderloins
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 lime (sliced into wedges for serving, optional)
Directions
Combine all ingredients except chicken breasts in a 1 gallon freezer bag. Close the bag and squish marinade around to mix. Add chicken breasts and massage marinade into meat until evenly coated. Seal the bag and place it in a bowl in the refrigerator (the bowl protects against leakage); marinate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
2. Clean grill and preheat to high. Lightly dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and, using tongs, carefully rub over grates several times until glossy and coated. (Alternatively, you can spray the grates with a non-flammable cooking spray.) Place chicken breasts on the grill and spoon any remaining marinade from the bag over top. Grill, covered, for 2-3 minutes per side (turn only once). Serve immediately with lime wedges.
