Combine lime juice, cilantro, garlic, tequila, cumin, jalapeno and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy-duty ziplock bag. Pat chicken dry and place in the bag with the marinade. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
Remove chicken and discard marinade. In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil. When shimmering, add chicken and pan sauté, until nicely browned about 15 minutes, turning once until internal temperature reads 165 degrees. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Slice each chicken breast on a diagonal into 4-5 pieces. Great served over cilantro rice with Black Bean &, Corn Salsa.
