🎙️ Cook with voice coach

In a bowl, combine all Chicken ingredients and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While chicken marinates, prepare the Sauce. In a saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Add Garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add Lime juice, Tequila, Honey, and Soy sauce to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
Heat Olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
Pour Sauce over the cooked chicken and cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
Garnish with Cilantro and serve immediately.
