Tequila Glazed Chicken With Jalapeño Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, chili powder, jalapeno pepper, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken breasts. Refrigerate overnight.
• Heat a grill with coals and brush the rack with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, sprinkle well with salt and pepper, and grill them skin-side down for about 5 minutes, until nicely browned. Turn the chicken and cook for another 10 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove from the grill to a plate. Cover tightly and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine the sugar, soy sauce, tequila, jalapeños, sliced tangerines and tangerine juice in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce reduces, about 15 minutes. Strain and discard the solids, then return the sauce to the pan. Whisk together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon cold water in a small bowl. Add to the sauce and cook until thickened, about 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Pour the oil to a depth of 3 inches in a Dutch oven and heat to 375 degrees F.
• Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fry the wings until golden brown and a thermometer registers 165 degrees F when inserted in the thickest portion (avoid bone), 8 to 10 minutes (The wings will begin to float to the top.)
• Remove the wings to paper towels to drain. Place the wings in a large bowl. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss to coat. Transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with jalapeño slices and tangerine slices.

Steps:

• Mix coriander, salt and pepper. Sprinkle over chicken. Cover and chill at least 1 hour or overnight.

• Heat grill and cook chicken until done turning frequently and basting with sauce. Cook time will vary on cut of chicken used.
• Serve as desired and with sauce if you'd like.
