Ingredients
  

  • 1 Gallon margarita mix unleaded
  • 1 cup kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 8 chicken breasts

Instructions
 

  • In a large non-porous container mix your margarita mix, salt and sugar and stir until completely dissolved.
  • In a gallon sized zip-top type bag place your chicken breasts, and pour your brine over-top enough to cover.
  • Seal the bag, and place in a 13x9 backing dish to prevent leaks in your refrigerator. Allow to brine at least 4-6 hours minimum - but not overnight.
  • After brining, remove the chicken from the brine and place on kitchen paper. Pat dry and grill meat to your desired doneness.
  • Serve with Black Beans and Rice and Enjoy!
