Steps:
- Heat the oil in a dutch oven and add onion and garlic. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until onion is tender and translucent. Reduce heat to low and add the rice. Cook for about a minute stirring constantly making sure the rice doesn't burn.
- Add cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne and turmeric, and then add the chicken broth and stir everything together. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Cover, and simmer until the rice is done. Stir in lime juice and cilantro.
- Slice the lime and squeeze the juice into a blender. Add tequila, olive oil, salt, garlic, jalapeno, and cilantro. Blend the mixture until totally combined.
- Add the chicken to a large plastic bag and pour in the lime-tequila mixture. Seal the bag and marinate in the fridge for several hours or overnight.
- Remove the chicken from the bag and grill it over medium-high heat, flip the chicken and continue grilling until chicken is cooked through, about 5 min per side. Slice the chicken and server over the cilantro and lime rice.
- Top with diced tomatoes, jalapenos, cilantro and lime slices.

Steps:
- Combine all of the ingredients except for the chicken breasts in a 1-gallon freezer bag. Close the bag and squish the marinade around to mix. Add the chicken breasts and massage the marinade into the meat until evenly coated. Seal the bag and place it in a bowl in the refrigerator (the bowl protects against leakage); marinate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Clean the grill and preheat to high. Lightly dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and, using tongs, carefully rub over the grates several times until glossy and coated. (Alternatively, you can spray the grates with a non-flammable cooking spray.) Place the chicken breasts on the grill and spoon any remaining marinade from the bag over top. Grill, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes per side (turning only once). Serve immediately with lime wedges.

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.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH CILANTRO MARINADE
This has become a quick and easy favorite that we frequently make on the grill. Despite the ease of prep, it is bursting with flavor. It is from the Black Dog Tavern's Summer on the Vineyard Cookbook.

Steps:
- Mix together the marinade ingredients in a deep bowl. Add the chicken breasts and turn to coat completely. Cover the bowl and refrigerate.
- Marinade for about 1 hour. You can leave the chicken in the marinade longer, but because the mixture is very acidic, the chicken will begin to appear poached.
- Preheat your grill. Cook the chicken over medium hot coals for about 3-5 mins per side.
- Serve and enjoy.
