Comment préparer 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).
**Prepare the Creamy Salsa Sauce:** In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup salsa, 2 tablespoons milk, 1/2 teaspoon Cajun spice, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, and a dash of your favorite hot sauce (start with 1/4 teaspoon and adjust to taste).
**Refrigerate the Sauce:** Cover the sauce and refrigerate until ready to use.
**Cook the Chicken:** Preheat your broiler or grill to high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and discard marinade.
**Broil/Grill the Chicken:** Broil or grill the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
**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.
**Prepare the Garnish:** Cut the remaining lime half into wedges.
**Serve:** Serve the Fiesta Lime Chicken immediately over a bed of tortilla chips. Garnish with lime wedges.
**Optional:** Serve with a side of rice for a complete meal.
