Monday 5th June – Time for Some Tequila!
This week’s Mexican menu features our NEW recipe for zingy, flavourful Tequila Lime Chicken. Definitely not boring plain chicken breasts, the added splash of tequila draws out the zingy lime and chipotle flavours and makes them taste even better!
We recommend serving your Tequila Lime Chicken with a Paloma, a refreshing grapefruit and tequila cocktail along with a side of garnished refried beans.
Chicken breasts get marinated with Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste, lime juice and zest, and a drizzle of olive oil. The chicken is pan-fried until the edges are caramelised before being flambéed with tequila for an extra burst of flavour. Wrap up all the flavourful goodness with our Soft Taco Wraps.

If you aren't familiar, Palomas are a wonderfully refreshing Mexican long drink made with tequila, grapefruit juice, agave syrup, sparkling water and lime. In our version we've added our Guajillo mix to the rim of the glass. See full recipe
A side of Refried Beans is the perfect accompaniment for Tequila Lime Chicken. We like to top with a fresh pico de gallo of tomatoes, onions, jalapeño and coriander for freshness and a bit of crumbly feta. See full recipe
Bring zingy, zesty, smoky and spicy Mexican flavours to your chicken and banish bland chicken forever!
