The summery flavors of a margarita provide a burst of lime and citrus to these ultra light grilled (or baked) antibiotic/hormone free chicken breasts. No sugary margarita mix here- just lime juice, lime zest, a hint of tequila, jalapeno (just a sprinkling) and cilantro in the marinade. Side of (fully cooked!) cilantro lime rice pilaf (basmati or plain brown). Perfect served with some guacamole and refried or black beans. 6 breasts/full, 3/half.
