Savor the tangy kick of lime, the subtle sweetness of orange, and a hint of tequila-infused bliss in every bite. It's like a vacation for your palate!
Ingredients:
-
2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
-
1/2 cup Papa Jack’s Margarita Lime Time marinade (plus extra for basting)
-
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
-
Zest of 1 fresh lime
-
Juice of 1 fresh lime
-
1/4 cup agave nectar
Instructions:
Marinate the Chicken:
Place chicken thighs in a bowl or zip-top bag. Add 1/2 cup Margarita Lime Time, season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Let sit for 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) in the fridge.
Preheat the Grill:
Heat your grill to 500°F for direct grilling.
Grill the Chicken:
Place chicken thighs directly on the grill grates. Cook for 5–7 minutes per side, basting with additional Margarita Lime Time marinade as you flip, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Finish with a Bright-Sweet Glaze:
Remove chicken from the grill and immediately drizzle with lime juice and agave nectar, then sprinkle with lime zest. This gives a vibrant citrusy finish with a kiss of sweetness.
Serve:
Let rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot with your favorite sides—grilled corn, rice, or a fresh salad pair great.
