Best Grilled Margarita Chicken... Ever! - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    2 tablespoons coarse black pepper
    2 teaspoons garlic powder
    2 teaspoons onion salt
    1/2 cup margarita mix
    1/4 cup lime juice
    1/4 cup orange juice
    3 tablespoons tequila
    3 tablespoons triple sec
    2 tablespoons honey
    1 cup light olive oil
    6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Preparation
    Place cilantro, pepper, garlic powder, and onion salt in the bowl of a blender. Pour in margarita mix, lime juice, orange juice, tequila, triple sec, and honey. Puree on high speed until smooth, then reduce speed to medium-low, and slowly add the olive oil; blend until creamy. Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or glass bowl; pour marinade overtop and toss to coat. Refrigerate for 5 hours.
    Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil grate.
    Remove chicken from the marinade, shake off excess, and discard remaining marinade. Grill the chicken until tender and juices run clear, approximately 7 minutes per side.
