Margarita Grilled Chicken
Usually around March I start really craving summer and all that comes with it. I like to make a grilled dish that reminds me that summer is coming soon. This dish is inspired by my favorite summer drink, the margarita.

These are great served alone, but I especially like to use these chicken breasts over a green salad or as a sandwich. Avocado or Guacamole is a great accompaniment to the chicken. Cheers!
