Excellent....and VERY easy to make. I actually baked it in the oven in the marinade (only had time to marinade for 3 hours and it came out so moist and tasty! I was concerned that it could be spicy or you would really taste the tequilla...but the flavor was just right. I will definitely make this again. Served it with the salsa and guacamole as a great compliment to the chicken!

Made this last night with boneless chicken breasts on the grill. Let it marinade overnight and wow, the flavors really came through. The chicken was a little dry but i think that's because i forgot they were on the grill for a little too long : oops. Will definitely make again but stay closer to the grill, loved it!

I BBQ'd some bone-in breasts and drumsticks with the marinade, basted it while on the grill. I only had time to let it marinate for about 1.5hrs and it still came out delicious. I think bone-in is the key!

this was great! I baked it in the oven on a rack above the baking pan. I can't wait to try it this summer on the grill!

Other than cutting this recipe in half, I made it exactly as written and I was disappointed; not that it was bad, but none of the flavors popped. In other words it was nothing special. Sorry.

I have served this for several years. Great reviews from all. We even did chicken kabobs for 90 guests at a Birthday party. Just this week I served it to a group of People (36 at a cookout. At the large party we made extra and did not expose it to the chicken but placed it in a sauce pan with Apple Jelly and reduced for a sauce we dipped the kabos before placing in the warming trays. It always gets great reviews.

I served this to out-of-town guests and we all LOVED it. The chicken was moist and flavorful without being overpowered. I'm getting ready to make it again this week. To anyone who has given it a negative review using boneless, skinless chicken breasts - I'm not surprised! You NEED the bone-in, skin-on chicken here. Really, you shouldn't even bother to grill chicken without a bone & skin. It makes a tremendous difference in taste & texture and this recipe really proves that.

I love Ina and make her recipes often, but this one won't be making it into the rotation. I followed it to the letter since it was my first time making it, allowed it to sit 24 hours, grilled it over wood chips on a real kettle grill, seasoned it...it just didn't have any flavor. White it certainly was was moist, none of the the flavors of the marinade came through, which was disappointing.

Ina is my favorite but this chicken was horrible! I was so embarrased to serve it to my guests..... I took it out of the firdge (it had been marinating overnight and went to put it on the grill and the chicken was partially cooked -- I think from the lime juice. The chicken ended up tough and had a strange, somewhat gummy texture. Definitely would NOT recommend.
