Tequila Citrus Chicken Recipe courtesy of Ina Garten Ingredients
    1 cup  gold tequila
    1 1/2 cups  freshly squeezed lime juice, (8 limes)
    1 cup  freshly squeezed orange juice, (4 oranges)
    1/2 cup  freshly squeezed lemon juice, (2 lemons)
    2 tablespoons  chili powder
    2 tablespoons  seeded and minced jalapeno pepper, (2 peppers)
    2 tablespoons  minced garlic, (6 cloves)
    4 teaspoons  kosher salt
    2 teaspoons  freshly ground black pepper
3 whole (12 split) boneless chicken breasts, skin on
      Olive oil, for brushing the grill

Directions

Combine the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, lemon juice, chili powder, jalapeno pepper, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken breasts. Refrigerate overnight.

Heat a grill with coals and brush the rack with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, sprinkle well with salt and pepper, and grill them skin-side down for about 5 minutes, until nicely browned. Turn the chicken and cook for another 10 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove from the grill to a plate. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
