Margarita Chicken Recipe

Ingredients:
1 can (10 oz.) frozen non-alcoholic margarita mix, thawed
3 Tbsp. lime juice
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

Directions:
In a small bowl, combine the margarita mix, lime juice and garlic. Pour 1 cup marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.  Drain and discard marinade. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill chicken, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 160°, basting frequently with reserved marinade.
