GRILLED MARGARITA CHICKEN
This marinade has all the ingredients of a margarita! Marinate the chicken breasts for an hour (not much longer, or the lime juice will start to cook the chicken) and then grill over medium-hot coals. Servings are based on the number of chicken pieces. If you have hearty eaters, this will not serve 8! Delicious!

- Make a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its delicious flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains citrus juice, olive oil, herbs, and spices. You can also add some honey or brown sugar for a touch of sweetness.
- Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for as little as 15 minutes, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Skewer the chicken: Use metal or wooden skewers to skewer the chicken. If you're using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
- Grill the chicken over medium heat: Preheat your grill to medium heat and cook the chicken for 8-10 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Be sure to turn the chicken frequently to prevent it from burning.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce: Grilled margarita chicken kabobs are delicious served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
