Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 lime (juiced (about 2 tablespoons))
- 1/4 cup tequila
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4-1/2 jalapeno pepper (chopped)
- 1/4 bunch fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 2 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 2 slices Monterey Jack cheese (optional)

Instruction
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the juice of the lime, tequila, olive oil, salt, garlic, jalapenos and cilantro.
- Place chicken into bag, seal, shake to distribute marinade, then place in refrigerator to marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours, turning at least once.
- When ready to cook, preheat grill to medium-hot.
- Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade. Place chicken breasts on hot grill and cook for 8 minutes per side.
- If opting for a cheese topping, in the last minute, place the slices of cheese on top of each breast and allow to melt.
- Remove from grill and garnish with cilantro and lime wedges.
