Chili's Margarita Chicken

6 - 8 full chicken breast butterflied (both sides of the chicken). If your grocer doesn’t provide - 12-16 individual breasts of chicken.
1/2 gallon liquid margarita mix - your favorite variety.
1/4 cup kosher salt
2-3 gallon food grade bucket

Directions Brine/Marinade:

Mix the Margarita and salt in your food grade bucket until the salt is dissolved.
In the food grade bucket place the chicken breasts.
Place lid on the bucket and place in the refrigerator overnight. (I actually did mine for 2 days)

Cooking Directions:

The next day dispose of the brining/marinade liquid reserving chicken breasts.
With paper towels pat the chicken dry to ensure proper connection to the grill.
Grill your chicken on the grill to your desired doneness. Generally 8-9 minutes on each side rotating half way to ensure the proper grill marks.
