While staying at our Riverbluff Cottages, guests all have their very own gas grill located on their bluff-side balcony. This month, we are releasing our very own “Sizzling Hot Grilling Recipe Book,” full of recipes shared by our very own staff.
Each guest staying at the Riverbluff Cottages during the month of August will receive a complimentary recipe book of their very own to keep!
Two favorites in this book include the Fiesta Chicken, contributed by one of our bartenders, Danita Chapman, and the Easy Grilled Salmon, contributed by our very own innkeepers, Terry and Peggy Hammer. I have included the recipes along with this blog for all of our readers to enjoy. Come stay with us during the month of August and receive a recipe book of your very own!
Fiesta Chicken by Danita Chapman
- 4 Limes
- 1 C Tequila
- 1/4 C Olive Oil
- 2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 5 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Jalapeno, sliced
- 1/2 bunch chopped Fresh Cilantro
- 12 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 C grated Monterey Jack
- Slice
open the limes and squeeze the juice into a food processor or blender. Add the tequila, olive oil, salt, garlic,
jalapenos and cilantro. Blend the
mixture until totally combined. Add the
chicken to a large plastic bag and pour the lime-tequila mixture. Seal the bag and marinate in the fridge for
several hours or overnight. - Remove
the chicken from the bag and grill it over medium-high heat. Rotate the chicken 45-degrees on both sides
to create nice grill marks and continue grilling until the chicken is cooked
through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. - Melt
the Monterey Jack over the top of the sliced chicken breasts. Slice the chicken and serve it on a plate
topped with the sides.
