This chicken bowl uses lemon ice tea, maple syrup, and beer as an overnight marination for a tasteful chicken bowl.
Behind this Drunken Chicken Bowl
This drunken LA-CHICKa fell into a pool of Michelada and Lemon Iced Tea! Have you ever had a Drunken Chicken Bowl in front of you?
Honestly, this isn’t part of my healthy recipes collection but a few of my Instagram followers saw this on my instastory and messaged me wanting the recipe.
I have seen a few of the car show guys buying this drink and I was curious and decided to buy one myself. Well, it had the beer and tomato flavor but tasted fake. I have tasted a freshly made kind that my bestie had made for me when I was at her pool party at her house and I loved the flavor. I do think that a freshly made concoction was better than a canned one.
The next day, I stopped by a gas station and I saw a Michelada Bud Light can and bought one.
We had chicken thighs defrosting in the fridge. What better way to use left over beer than to pour and drown them chicks, right? Had to keep it Mexican and added Tajin with Lime seasoning (Thanks to my Momsy!) to bring out the citrus flavor.
Then, I figured add some sweetness to it with Lemon Iced Tea instead of using the last of my organic maple syrup. We wanted to barbeque this Drunken Chicken Bowl the next day after the 24 hour marination but never did. I just put them in the sauna (the oven).
I decided that this Drunken Chicken Bowl needed some jazzy rice and sauteed veggies to balance the flavor.

Please remember to adjust the measurements of the ingredients to your liking. I am no way responsible if you overly season your chicken.
