Tequila lime chicken

3 limes divided
1/4 cup tequila 
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt or garlic powder if you’re looking to reduce salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon olive oil

You will want to marinade the chicken for as long as possible, a minimum of 1 hour, however 12-24 hours is better.

To a gallon freezer bag combine the juice of 2 limes, tequila, chili powder, garlic salt and pepper.

Slice the chicken breasts into two thin filets. Add the chicken filets to the Drunken Yardbird taco marinade, refrigerate until you are ready to cook.

Add the oil to a large skillet and heat on medium high heat. Add in the chicken (reserve the Drunken Yardbird Taco marinade) and cook for 5 minutes on each side, until browned and a little charred.

Once the chicken is mostly cooked and a bit charred, remove from the skillet and turn off the heat. Add the reserved Drunken Yardbird Taco marinade to the skillet.

Chop the chicken into small bites and add back to the skillet. Cook on medium high heat until the marinade is absorbed by the chicken, about 10 minutes.
