Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons tequila
1 tablespoon lime zest, from about 2 limes
4 cloves garlic, minced
1¼ teaspoons ground ancho chili pepper
½ teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1¼ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons honey
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (or about 2 pounds), pounded to an even ½-inch thickness
1 lime, sliced into wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients except for the chicken breasts in a 1-gallon freezer bag. Close the bag and squish the marinade around to mix. Add the chicken breasts and massage the marinade into the 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.
  • Clean the grill and preheat to high. Lightly dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and, using tongs, carefully rub over the grates several times until glossy and coated. (Alternatively, you can spray the grates with a non-flammable cooking spray.) Place the chicken breasts on the grill and spoon any remaining marinade from the bag over top. Grill, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes per side (turning only once). Serve immediately with lime wedges.

1/2 cup gold tequila
1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (5 to 6 limes)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (2 oranges)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon minced fresh jalapeno pepper (1 pepper seeded)

Steps:

  • Combine the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, chili powder, jalapeno pepper, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken breasts. Refrigerate overnight.
  • Heat a grill with coals and brush the rack with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, sprinkle well with salt and pepper, and grill them skin-side down for about 5 minutes, until nicely browned. Turn the chicken and cook for another 10 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove from the grill to a plate. Cover tightly and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

SPICY TEQUILA MANGO CHICKEN



Spicy Tequila Mango Chicken image

I threw this together with random ingredients I had on hand and it was delicious! This recipe marinates, tenderizes, sauces, and cooks the chicken in minutes. This can be served alone or with a side like rice or maybe even plantains. Beware this has a kick.

Provided by ANGELADODSON

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16 ounce) bag frozen mango chunks
4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
salt to taste
1 cup tequila
¼ cup Louisiana-style hot sauce, or to taste
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 clove garlic, or more to taste, minced
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 large white onion, cut into large chunks

Steps:

  • Place mango on a plate and leave at room temperature until thawed, about 30 minutes. Mash slightly and set aside.
  • When mango is almost thawed, rub chicken with salt and tenderize with a fork. Transfer to a large glass or ceramic bowl. Pour on tequila and move chicken around in it with the fork. Marinate until tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Add mango to the chicken-tequila mixture, along with hot sauce, cider, and garlic. Let sit for at least 10 minutes or longer if you have the time.
  • Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Stir in onion. Cover with a lid and slightly caramelize for 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken-mango mixture and increase heat to high. Cook, uncovered, until alcohol had cooked off, about 5 minutes. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 8 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Cut chicken breasts into large pieces and mix it all up.
