CHILI'S MARGARITA GRILLED CHICKEN RECIPE
This is delicious and easy! I like to make this on the weekends beause I can marinate the Chicken while I am busy doing other things. Serve with rice and black beans for a quick weekend meal, much cheaper than going out to eat too!

Steps:
- In a glass bowl, add chicken tenders, margarita mix and salt. Stir so tenders are coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
- While chicken is marinating, make your Pico de Gallo:
- In a bowl, mix together tomato, onion, jalapeno, salt, cilantro and juice from one lime
- Stir pico. Cover bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- If making beans & spanish rice - make this about 20-30 minutes before you want to eat. The chicken takes less than 10 minutes to cook.
- After marinating, heat grill pan (or grill or air fryer) to medium high and spray heavily with non-stick cooking spray
- When skillet is heated, add half chicken tenders to grill pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. Turn on your exhaust fan - trust me.
- Reduce heat to medium low and cook rest of chicken tenders.
- When chicken is done, prepare your bowls. Place the spanish rice in the middle of the bowl. Surround the edges with black beans. Stack 3-4 chicken tenders on top like a teepee.
- Top chicken tenders with pico de gallo and tortilla strips.
