Chicken Fajitas

This is a family favorite. From one of my favorite cookbooks, It's A Long Way to Guacamole.
Absolutely delicious!

Chicken Fajitas

1 1/2 to 2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 c fresh lime juice
1/4 c tequila
1/4 c olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Combine lime juice, tequila, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix well.

Add chicken pieces and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.

Grill for 8 to 10 minutes on each side. Slice in 1/2 inch strips.

Serve in warm flour tortillas with desired condiments.

Condiments:
Sautéed onion rings
Sautéed green pepper rings
Chopped tomatoes
Chopped lettuce
Sour cream
Shredded cheese
Guacamole
Sliced avocado
Salsa

Note: I also sprinkle Fajita seasoning on the meat while it marinates.

The recipe suggests grilling over a charcoal grill with mesquite wood chips added to the charcoal - I have done this
as well as cooking the meat on an indoor electric grill. Both work great!
