Margarita Chicken

I love any recipe that starts with Margaritas! Ingredients: 1 pitcher of Margaritas 3 lbs boneless chicken breast 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro 1/2 T chopped garlic Salt and pepper to taste Cheese & your favorite salsa Directions: Marinate Chicken, Cilantro and garlic in 2 cups of Margarita Mix (including Tequila) for 4-8 hours in the fridge. Drain chicken and season with salt and pepper, then grill the chicken. Serve topped with salsa and Cheese, along with a pitcher of Margaritas! Chicken is great on rice or in quesadillas and salads. Great left over! I loved the recipe, because it was so versatile. And I'm gonna be honest, If I have to make margaritas for a recipe, I'll do it. And if the recipe says to drink those margarita's, I'm gonna do it. That is just the kind of cook I am. ;) Once again my kiddos loved it and it was great left over. We served ours on whole wheat cilantro lime rice, topped with cheese and onions. For a side dish I threw some corn on the grill. Wowo! I'm almost not even cooking this meal,,,, the grill is doing all the work! The Chicken had tons of flavor so we opted to leave the salsa off. The next night we ate the chicken in quesadillas and my family went crazy for them. A great Summery recipe to add to my collection.

Ooh, I'll have some of this too, but can you hold the chicken? Then again, I was up until midnight, so the margarita would probably knock me straight on my butt!
