Time 8h35m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 cup gold tequila
1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lime juice (8 limes)
1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (4 oranges)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons seeded and minced jalapeno pepper (2 peppers)
2 tablespoons minced garlic (6 cloves)
4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
3 whole (12 split) boneless chicken breasts, skin on
Olive oil, for brushing the grill

Steps:

Combine the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, lemon juice, chili powder, jalapeño 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 with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Categories Chicken Breast

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

3 large chicken breast halves (about 3lbs. total)
1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
3/4 cup tequila
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
1 fresh jalapeno chile, seeded, and minced
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3 teaspoons grated lime zest

Steps:

With a sharp, heavy knife, cut each chicken breast in half crosswise for a total of 6 pieces. In a large glass or plastic bowl, combine cilantro, tequila, lime juice, brown sugar, chile, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and mix to coat with marinade. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. (Do not marinate longer, because the acid in the marinade will begin to "cook" the chicken.).
Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for direct, medium-high heat (you can hold your hand 1 to 2 inches above the cooking grate only 2 to 3 seconds; visit our Grilling Essential section for complete instructions).
While grill heats, remove chicken from marinade, transfer to a platter, and pour marinade into a small bowl. Push your fingers under skin of each piece of chicken and rub meat with 1/2 teaspoons lime zest.
Place chicken skin side down on oiled cooking grate and brush with marinade; cover gas grill. Cook until skin is browned but not charred, 4 to 6 minutes. Turn chicken with a wide spatula, brush again with remaining marinade, and cook, turning as needed to prevent burning, until chicken is no longer pink at the bone (cut to test), about 10 minutes longer. Transfer to a clean platter.
