Tequila Flavored Grilled Chicken Breast With Mango Chutney On Sesame Tortilla Recipes

SPICY TEQUILA MANGO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place mango on a plate and leave at room temperature until thawed, about 30 minutes. Mash slightly and set aside.
• When mango is almost thawed, rub chicken with salt and tenderize with a fork. Transfer to a large glass or ceramic bowl. Pour on tequila and move chicken around in it with the fork. Marinate until tender, about 10 minutes.
• Add mango to the chicken-tequila mixture, along with hot sauce, cider, and garlic. Let sit for at least 10 minutes or longer if you have the time.
• Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Stir in onion. Cover with a lid and slightly caramelize for 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken-mango mixture and increase heat to high. Cook, uncovered, until alcohol had cooked off, about 5 minutes. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 8 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Cut chicken breasts into large pieces and mix it all up.

TEQUILA-LIME GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• With a sharp, heavy knife, cut each chicken breast in half crosswise for a total of 6 pieces. In a large glass or plastic bowl, combine cilantro, tequila, lime juice, brown sugar, chile, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and mix to coat with marinade. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. (Do not marinate longer, because the acid in the marinade will begin to "cook" the chicken.).
• Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for direct, medium-high heat (you can hold your hand 1 to 2 inches above the cooking grate only 2 to 3 seconds; visit our Grilling Essential section for complete instructions).
• While grill heats, remove chicken from marinade, transfer to a platter, and pour marinade into a small bowl. Push your fingers under skin of each piece of chicken and rub meat with 1/2 teaspoons lime zest.
• Place chicken skin side down on oiled cooking grate and brush with marinade; cover gas grill. Cook until skin is browned but not charred, 4 to 6 minutes. Turn chicken with a wide spatula, brush again with remaining marinade, and cook, turning as needed to prevent burning, until chicken is no longer pink at the bone (cut to test), about 10 minutes longer.
