MARGARITA CHICKEN PENNE
I was trying to figure out what to fix for dinner and started looking at recipes for Margarita. I had no idea what I was doing with it so I took some ideas from various recipes to come up with my own! It turned out great!!

Steps:
- Preparation: Place Chicken Breasts, Tequila, lime juice, orange juice and sea salt into a freezer bag to let marinate. At least 3-4 hours. Next time, I may marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
- Once marinating is complete, coarsely chop tomatoes and set aside. Then dice onion and set aside. Cut fresh basil into thin strips and set aside.
- Grill Chicken on the grill until cooked thoroughly. Then set chicken aside to rest at least 10 minutes before cutting into chunks.
- Place noodles on the stove top in boiling water. Cook until firm consistency (Al Dente).
- In a skillet, melt 1 stick of butter. Add garlic and onion. Cook until caramelized. Add to skillet, tomato, fresh basil and spinach. Cook for 10 minutes on stove top.
- Cut chicken into bite size chunks then stir into skillet sauce.
- Once noodles are cooked, strain, then add chicken and tomato sauce to noodles. Stir in shredded Parmesan cheese if desired.
