ottergrrlMaybe it's just my household but did you ever end up with margarita mix just sort of lurking in the back of the fridge, waiting for something ultimate to happen to it? If you have, then you should go have a rummage in the back of the fridge and make this. It makes really tender, tasty chicken, awesome with a salad.
for 4 - 6 breasts of chicken
1 cup margarita mix, with tequila in.
2 tbsp tamari
1 tbsp mustard
1/2 cup lemonade
2 tbsp fresh ginger
3 - 4 crushed cloves of garlic
1/4 cup olive oil
Mix all together and blend with stick blender or what have you. Tenderize the chicken breasts by smashing with hammer while they are in a heavy duty ziplock bag. Marinate for 3 - 4 hours (I think next time I'll try overnight) and grill until done. I panfried these and was rewarded with a glorious dark brown glaze and tender, well cooked yet juicy chicken.
MMMMMM.
