Using alcohol in marinades can greatly enhance flavor while also tenderizing the meat. Tequila offers a unique and delicious twist, especially when using a reposado.
For the best margarita marinated chicken, combine tequila, fresh lime, orange liqueur, salt, and sugar. This combination not only adds flavor but also helps tenderize the meat.
Try adding lime and orange zest to your marinade for an extra zing. Coupling your margarita-making with marinade preparation ensures a perfect pairing.
Remember, the collagen in meat breaks down with alcohol, making it more tender, much like it does with heat during cooking.
