How to Make Honey Tequila Lime Chicken
- In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, tequila, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and salt.
- Add chicken breasts (or fish fillets) to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or prepare your grill/BBQ.
- Remove chicken (or fish) from marinade and discard the marinade.
- Bake chicken for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Grill or BBQ for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and nicely charred.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or lime wedges before serving. Enjoy!
