Chicken

I told Aaron to give me a topic for today and he chose: chicken. Such a man, of course he wants to talk about food! Well, I do have to say that I make some really good margarita grilled chicken...its from Chili’s! SO, here is my recipe for it. Its not the same as Chili’s, but it tastes great!

Margarita Mix(bottled, you can even get lite!)
Boneless Chicken Breasts

* Place chicken breasts in a glass dish, and pour margarita mix over them until covered. Let marinate in the fridge for 2 hours...and make sure you do the full 2 hours or a little longer!

For Rice mix:
White Rice
Your favorite salsa
1 can of drained corn

Pico:
2-3 Roma tomatoes (seeded)
1/2 red onion (to taste)
1 jalapeno pepper (or more to taste)
2 medium cloves garlic
juice of one lime
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper


Black Beans(as much as you want!)
Tortilla strips(really thin ones!)

Grill your chicken! Cook your rice! Mix your pico! Cook your beans!

Now to put it together! To make it pretty.....
Put one spoonful of beans on the plate, spread them out to where there is a hole in the center.
One handful of tortilla strips
One scoop of rice on top of the chips
your chicken breast
one spoonful of pico
topped with a lime wedge

And you have margarita grilled chicken!

 

Enjoy!
