Baked Tequila Lime Chicken

Forget about the above dry and tasteless Mexican style poultry, my Cooked Tequila Lime Chicken is not only super easy but is loaded with taste and bursting with fruit drinks! In addition though it may be marinade advised it is far from needed making this fowl the right quick supper meal!

For several unfamiliar reason right after the New Year, my urge for food has become under normal. Nothing continues to be peeking my meals likes and dislikes lately and for a food blog writer that is certainly mucho bad news.

But my charming hubs chose to take yet another trip to Costco and got a new life time flow of things poultry. They have been susceptible to taking astonishing outings to Costco with my list on hand and purchasing nothing which belonged on that collection.

He purchased everything poultry. Upper thighs, drumsticks, busts, smoked, rotisserie. All the chicken breast which had been reasonably wholesome that Costco needed to offer he devote his cart.

“It’s organic babe,” he said in my opinion. Seemingly all that time I expended revealing him we only take in Amish chicken breast has dropped on deaf ears. No matter what. I had a refrigerator and freezer packed with fowl to get ready and so i experienced far better make an appetite.

I had already organized to create my Fast and simple Mexican Design Rice and so i decided to conduct a great Mexican angle on some upper thighs and drumsticks.

The Process

I needed to infuse just as much flavour as possible within this Baked Tequila Lime Fowl therefore i threw it in the speedy 15 min marinade to increase the flavor information. I held the flavours timeless and uncomplicated:

• Refreshing lime liquid and lime energy. The liveliness provides the fowl a burst of freshness along with the tartness slashes through the extra fat within the chicken.


• Jalapeno: The jalapeo was excellent to incorporate a pop of flavour and heat to lure the taste buds.


• Cilantro: Cilantro tends to make everything far better for me personally and it adds a bunch of flavor and freshness for the chicken.


• Garlic cloves: Duh…because garlic cloves goes into every thing.


• Scallions: Scallions include the perfect volume of tasty onion flavor with no harshness that onions can sometimes give.


• Tequila: In a natural way tequila is indeed perfect Mexican. Nevertheless it also behaves as a tenderizer which is much needed when we only have fifteen minutes to marinade.


• Honey: Amounts out the tartness in the lime and also the tequila.

As I placed the fowl in a yelling popular 450 level oven, I made our properly flaky Mexican Bistro Design Rice from a pack of freezing rice I had from the freezer (yea…it’s that easy 10 minutes to perfect rice. ) And I made the decision that my fowl required yet another put of quality along with it.

I launched a extremely clean and delicious avocado and tomato experience to provide along with the chicken breast or alongside it. In either case this is basically the best accompaniment.

As the fowl relaxed and so i fought off my hubby and munchkin from ripping in to the crispy skin area around the chicken, I toasted up some fresh tortillas, sliced up up a ton of limes and tore of a nice fresh couple of cilantro.

The munchkin adores avocado and right away requested me to pour out each of the avocado enjoy on her plate.

Our supper got together within 1 hour and so i rarely broke a perspire. But the good news is I did come up with a damage within the Costco collection of poultry thanks to the hubs.
