Zubereitung von Fiesta Lime Chicken
- **Prepare the Marinade:** In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, the juice of 1/2 lime, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon tequila, 1 teaspoon liquid smoke, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon grated ginger.
- **Marinate the Chicken:** Add 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably longer (up to 4 hours).

- **Cook the Chicken:** Preheat your broiler or grill to high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and discard marinade.

- **Top with Sauce and Cheese:** Brush the cooked chicken breasts generously with the creamy salsa sauce. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese).
- **Melt the Cheese:** Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
