    Source of Recipe


    Terri Heil

    List of Ingredients




    1 whole chicken (4-5 lbs.)

    large resealable plastic bag

    6 jalapeno peppers, seeds removed

    6 tomatillos, cut in half

    6 oz. tequila (optional)

    6 oz. lime juice

    6 oz. olive oil

    1 Tbsp. chili powder

    1 tsp. salt

    1 tsp. black pepper

    Recipe



    Thoroughly clean and rinse chicken. Pat dry. To remove backbone of chicken, place chicken breast-side down on cutting board and cut along each side of the backbone; discard bone. Open chicken, pressing down on the breastbone to flatten. Place chicken in bag; set aside.

    Mix remaining ingredients in blender; reserve 1 cup sauce. Pour remaining sauce over chicken and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.

    Preheat grill to medium heat. Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade. Grill bone-side down for 15 minutes. Turn chicken and cook about 15 minutes more, or until juices run clear when pierced with fork. Serve with reserved sauce.
