APPLEBEE’S TEQUILA LIME CHICKEN RECIPE  (AKA FIESTA LIME CHICKEN)

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup tequila
  • 2 cups fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 2 cups fresh, crunchy corn tortilla strips
  • ½ Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup Applebee’s Mexi Ranch Dressing (4 tbsp. salsa mixed with ¾ cup ranch dressing)

DIRECTIONS:

    1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine chicken, lime juice, and tequila. Shake well and marinate overnight.
    2. When ready, remove chicken from lime tequila marinade and grill over medium heat 10 minutes, flipping half way through grilling. Be sure chicken is thoroughly cooked.
    3. Meanwhile, set your oven to broil.
    4. Place tortilla strips on serving plate and top with a chicken breast. Do this for each chicken breast.
    5. Smother grilled chicken breasts with Mexi-ranch dressing and cheese (divide portions so they’re equal).
    6. Place each plate of  food under a broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, until cheese is completely melted and just starting to bubble.
    7. Promptly and carefully remove plates from oven.
    8. Top with pico de gallo and Spanish rice. Mmmmmmmm!
