Margarita Chicken

This is another favorite from the Food Network.  It is a little summer chicken.  It would also be good chopped up in salad.  I wasn't able to find the frozen margarita mix so I used the liquid kind from the liquor store.


Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 can (10 oz) frozen margarita mix, thawed
2/3 c. tequila
1/2 c. fresh cilantro
2. tbsp chicken seasoning


Rinse chicken and pat dry, set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients.  Place the chicken and marinade in large resealable plastic bag.  Squeeze out the air and seal.  Let marinate in the refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.  (I marinated it over night)
Set up the grill for direct cooking over medium heat and oil grate when ready to start cooking.  Remove the chicken from the refrigerate and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Place chicken on hot oiled grill and cook 5 to 10 minutes per side or until done.


Indoor: Preheat over to 350 degrees.  Prepare chicken breasts as directed.  Roast chicken breasts in preheated over for 35 to 40 minutes.
