Steps:
- Combine all of the ingredients except for the chicken breasts in a 1-gallon freezer bag. Close the bag and squish the marinade around to mix. Add the chicken breasts and massage the marinade into the meat until evenly coated. Seal the bag and place it in a bowl in the refrigerator (the bowl protects against leakage); marinate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Clean the grill and preheat to high. Lightly dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and, using tongs, carefully rub over the grates several times until glossy and coated. (Alternatively, you can spray the grates with a non-flammable cooking spray.) Place the chicken breasts on the grill and spoon any remaining marinade from the bag over top. Grill, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes per side (turning only once). Serve immediately with lime wedges.

Steps:
- Season the chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper. In a non-reactive baking dish large enough to hold all the chicken to marinate, whisk together the vegetable oil, citrus zests and juices, cayenne pepper and the thyme. Add the chicken thighs and turn to coat. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to a couple hours in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the grill. Remove the chicken from marinade and let excess drip back into dish. Place chicken on the hot grill, without overcrowding the pieces. Grill until fully cooked through, turning occasionally, about 15 minutes total, depending on how hot your grill is. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, toast the coriander and aniseed over moderate heat, tossing until fragrant, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a mortar or spice grinder and grind until you have a smooth powder.
- In a large nonreactive dish, whisk the honey, lemon juice, orange zest, tequila, lime juice, scallions, thyme, rosemary, sage, and ground spice mixture. Put each chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or wax paper. Using a meat mallet or the side of a sturdy glass, pound each until 1/2-inch thick. Add the chicken breast halves to the marinade and turn to coat. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Light a grill or heat a cast iron skillet, preferably ridged, over moderately high heat. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill or sear the chicken, in batches if necessary, about 4 minutes on the first side, or until opaque around the edges. Turn over and cook for about 3 minutes more, or until opaque throughout. Brush the chicken with the marinade occasionally while grilling, but do not put any marinade on during the last 2 minutes of grilling, as all the marinade must be thoroughly cooked.
- Transfer the chicken to a clean platter and serve.
