Tequila Lime Chicken

By
Ingredients

4 limes
1 cup tequila
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
5 cloves garlic
1 jalapeno, sliced
1/2 bunch chopped fresh cilantro
12 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups grated Monterey Jack
Options for servings:
Corn tortillas
Flour tortillas
Grated Monterey Jack
Pico de gallo
Jalapeno slices
Lime wedges
Avocado slices
Sour cream

Directions

Slice open the limes and squeeze the juice into a food processor or blender. Add the tequila, olive oil, salt, garlic, jalapenos and cilantro. Blend the mixture until totally combined. Add the chicken to a large plastic bag and pour in the lime-tequila mixture. Seal the bag and marinate in the fridge for several hours or overnight.

Remove the chicken from the bag and grill it over medium-high heat. Rotate the chicken 45-degrees on both sides to create nice grill marks, and continue grilling until the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Melt the Monterey Jack over the top of the sliced chicken breasts.

Slice the chicken and serve it on a plate topped with the sides.

  Ingredients 5 cups popped popcorn 1 cup candy corn 1 cup chopped salted peanuts 1/2 cup butter or margarine 3 cups miniature marshmallows 4 drops red food coloring 3 drops yellow food coloring 4 sticks red or black licorice, cut into thirds Directions Grease a muffin pan and set aside. Place popcorn, candy corn and peanuts into a large bowl and set aside. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.

When the marshmallows are completely melted, pour over the popcorn and stir to evenly distribute the candy, nuts and marshmallow. Use a greased spoon to fill the muffin cups. Insert a piece of licorice to act as the stem, and mold the popcorn around it. Let stand until firm, 10 to 15 minutes, and then pull the pumpkins out by their stems and admire your pumpkin patch!
