When working with chicken breasts, it’s helpful to pound them down a bit so they’re all the same thickness. This ensures that all of your chicken breasts will cook through evenly. This chicken is sautéed in a skillet. No cutting into one and finding it raw… and then into another and finding it overdone. They’ll all be done at the same time!
How to Make Tequila Almond Chicken:
Marinate the chicken briefly in lime zest, lime juice, tequila and garlic. Coat the chicken in ground almonds + cumin + salt. Fry in butter + olive oil until golden brown and cooked through.
Top the chicken with the tomato and avocado salad and serve. I love this chicken recipe because the chicken has a crispy almond crust with tender, juicy chicken inside. You can get some tomato and avocado in every bite. This tequila almond chicken recipe is a keeper!
