This is my tequila shot tacos with golden salsa. Even if you're not into tequila, you should check this recipe out, it's stunning. The chicken is marinated in salt, tequila and lime along with some other spices which tenderises those chicken thighs and you just end up with the juiciest chicken.
For the salsa, we've gone for golden tomatoes for a seasonal, summer hit, and you have this fruity, zingy fresh flavoured salsa. They're sweet like grapes with an edge of tartness which makes them perfect for salsa. If you can't find any, try and buy the best tomatoes you can afford as this will give you the tastiest salsa! Once you've cooked the chicken, don't forget to reduce the marinade down. It turns into this really sticky, delicious glaze..
This recipe is great to chuck on the BBQ or even as a weeknight treat. If you want more taco recipes why not check out our recipes for easy tacos, fish tacos and cheesy beef tacos.
