Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 large yellow onion
  • 1/3 cup tequila (silver)
  • 1/4 cup agave nectar
  • 1 large lime ((juice from 1 lime))
  • 1 1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder ((more or less according to personal tolerance))
  • Salt
  • 4 fajita tortillas
  • 3 oz lettuce
  • 2 avocados
  • cooked chicken and onions from above

Instruction

  • Place chicken breasts into a gallon zip-lock bag.
  • Slice onion thinly and add it to the bag as well. 
  • Add tequila, agave nectar, juice from the lime, salt, and chipotle chili powder to the bag.
  • Close the bag and gently shake the content to mix it. 
  • Place the bag in a shallow bowl and into the fridge overnight. (You can also prepare this chicken in the morning and that way it will be ready to cook for dinner.)
  • Once chicken is marinated, preheat a medium pan over medium heat. Add a little bit of canola oil t the pan to cook the chicken.
  • Take chicken out of the marinade (SAVE the marinade, don't discard it) and cook it until done. (Cooking time will depend of chicken breast size.)
  • About half way through cooking the chicken, take onions out of the marinade and add them to the pan. 
  • Once chicken and onions are done, take both out of the pan. 
  • Add marinate into the hot pan and continue simmering it, stirring often, until reduced and thickened. Take sauce out and save it to use on tacos.
