Level Up Your Meal Prep Game: Tequila Sunrise Chicken

Tequila Sunrise Chicken Recipe


Level up your protein game with a vibrant twist! This tequila-marinated chicken brings bold flavors to the table, enhanced by Feast Mode’s versatile seasonings.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup silver tequila
  • Juice of 1 orange
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Feast Mode Seasonings - Sunrise Tequila (adjust for your flavor preference)
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Marinade: In a bowl, combine tequila, orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, Feast Mode Seasoning, and cumin. Stir to mix thoroughly.

  2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Marinate for at least 1 hour in the fridge, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor infusion.

  3. Preheat the Grill: Set your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

  4. Grill the Chicken: Remove chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Baste with remaining marinade as you cook for extra moisture and flavor.

  5. Serve and Garnish: Once cooked, transfer chicken to a plate, allow it to rest for a few minutes, then sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

Tips:

  • Serving Ideas: Pair with a fresh avocado and mango salsa for a tropical touch!
  • Pro Tip: Baste occasionally for added flavor and juiciness!
