    1. In shallow glass dish, place chicken and sprinkle with salt and pepper. In small bowl, make marinade by mixing together garlic, jalapeno, wine, cilantro, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, oregano, cumin, cayenne pepper, onion flakes and red pepper flakes. Pour marinade over chicken, cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

    2. Remove chicken from marinade; drain. In large skillet, place remaining olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add remaining garlic and chicken. SautÈ chicken until brown, about 3 minutes on each side; remove from pan. Reduce heat, add tequila and lime juice; deglaze pan with mixture.

    3. Stir in tomatoes and return chicken to pan. Cover and simmer, turning once, until fork can be inserted in chicken with ease and juices run clear, about 6 minutes.

    4. Remove chicken to serving plate. Simmer sauce, uncovered, until reduced by one-third. Pour over chicken. Garnish, if desired, with lime and avocado slices and cilantro sprigs. Serve over rice.
