Ingredients
The following ingredients have 3 Servings
- 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts ((about 8 ounces each))
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 ounce tequila
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic (, minced)
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- chopped cilantro (, fo serving, optional)
Instruction
- Cover chicken breasts with plastic wrap and pound the thicker end of the chicken to make both sides leveled out - this will ensure they cook evenly.
- In a gallon-size ziploc bag, combine the lime juice, orange juice, lemon juice, olive oil, tequila, honey, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Seal the bag and shake to combine. Then add the chicken to the bag, toss to coat, and seal again.
- Transfer the chicken to the fridge to marinate for 2 hours (and not longer than 3.)
- Remove the chicken from the bag, discard the marinade, and let chicken stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Pat dry, if necessary.
- If your air fryer requires preheating, set it to 375 degrees F.
- Once ready to air fry, place the chicken into the basket of your air fryer.
- Air fry for 6 minutes. Using tongs, flip the chicken breasts over and cook for 5-8 minutes more or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Allow the chicken to rest for 4-5 minutes.
- Slice the chicken breasts and top with the cilantro and enjoy.
