Como fazer Fiesta Lime Chicken

  1. **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.
  2. **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).

  5. **Cook the Chicken:** Preheat your broiler or grill to high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and discard marinade.
  6. **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).
