  • In a medium bowl mix together the [BBQ Sauce | https://www.halfbakedharvest.com/homemade-barbecue-sauce-just-like-sweet-baby-rays/], tequila, lime zest, orange zest, lime juice, garlic, jalapeño, cumin, salt and pepper.
  • In another medium size bowl combine the chicken, olive oil and 1/4 cup of the BBQ Margarita sauce. Toss well.

After five minutes shred the chicken and toss with 1/2 cup of the BBQ Sauce. Keep warm.
  • While the chicken is grilling toss together the salsa. In a medium bowl combine the diced tomatoes, diced mango, jalapeños, green onions, cilantro. lime zest, orange zest, lime juice, tequila and salt. If desired you can add the salsa to a blender and pulse until your desired consistency is reached. I leave mine chunky.
