    Rating the marinade since that's all I did. Wonderful flavor and juicy chicken off the grill. I added more tequila, and a splash of triple sec. Used soy vay teriyaki sauce. Can't wait until I try the whole recipe. Thanks for sharing.

    Tequila Lime Chicken from Applebee’s, I started making this recipe years ago. It was probabley the first “out of my comfort zone” recipe I had ever tried and my family LOVED it. I actually think this recipe is better then the restaurant dish. On the mexi-ranch dressing I add much more cumin, chili powder, and dill weed then the recipe calls for so just keep mixing until you have the kind of flavor you desire., Rating the marinade since that’s all I did. Wonderful flavor and juicy chicken off the grill. I added more tequila, and a splash of triple sec. Used soy vay teriyaki sauce. Can’t wait until I try the whole recipe. Thanks for sharing., Holy cow, this was delicious! I always loved Applebee’s tequila lime chicken but have missed it since I stopped eating meat. I made this using Quorn Chik’n cutlets and it was awesome. I did everything to the recipe specs accept of course the meat, and me and my wife loved it. I’m sure it’s fine with chicken but you can eat just as good with veg meat. I have made it twice now and we love it.
