¼ cup lime juice

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was dry and tough, and the marinade was too salty. I would not recommend this recipe.

Not bad! I thought the marinade could have been a bit more flavorful, but the chicken was still good. I'll try adding some extra lime juice and cilantro next time.

Easy to make and delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they turned out moist and juicy. The marinade was tangy and flavorful without being too overpowering.

This grilled margarita chicken was a hit at my last BBQ! The marinade was flavorful and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.
