Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the peach preserves, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, orange juice, tequila, minced onion, and garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Divide the mixture in half. Use one half to marinate your protein of choice (pork tenderloin, steak, chicken, or fish). Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor. (Marinating time: 30 minutes - 4 hours)

03

Step

Pour the remaining sauce into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer gently until the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. (Simmering time: 10-12 minutes)

04

Step

Once the meat is cooked to your liking, drizzle the thickened sauce over the top. Serve immediately and enjoy the symphony of flavors!

For a smokier flavor, try grilling the marinated meat. The caramelized edges will add depth to the overall dish.
Adjust the amount of tequila to your preference. For a milder flavor, use less; for a stronger kick, use more. Blanco tequila provides a brighter, crisper flavor, while reposado offers a smoother, oakier taste.
This sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
