This grilled chicken is very good even without the Tequila. Just set back and enjoy the day with friends. Let the grill do the rest.

How to Make Tequila Chili-Lime Grilled Chicken

Step-by-Step

Make marinade by mixing all ingredients in shallow glass or plastic or resealable plastic bag.
Flatten each chicken breast to 1/4 inch thickness, between sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper. Add chicken to marinade.
Cover dish or seal bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. Remove chicken from marinade; discard remaining marinade.
Cover and grill chicken 4-6 inches from medium heat for 8-10 minutes, turning once, until juice of chicken is no longer pink.
