Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila Alves McConaughey recently shared some of their favorite family recipes and tequila cocktails in a cover story for Southern Living's April 2024 issue. The couple, who have been married for nearly 12 years and have three children, revealed their go-to dishes that are loved by both adults and kids.
Camila's no-mayo coleslaw recipe, which uses olive oil, vinegar, and lemon juice instead of mayonnaise, is a hit in their household. The children's favorite is the honey chicken, a sweet and savory dish that involves marinating and baking wings and drumettes before drizzling them with honey and broiling them.
Matthew mentioned another family favorite, the Brazilian chicken stroganoff, which he described as sinfully good due to its combination of chicken, cream, and corn. However, they acknowledged that it's not a dish they can indulge in every night.
In addition to their culinary preferences, the McConaugheys also shared insights into their new joint tequila brand, Pantalones Organic Tequila. Matthew expressed his love for Pantalones reposado on the rocks, emphasizing his preference for savoring tequila in its pure form rather than in sugary cocktails.
The couple introduced their tequila brand with a playful video featuring them riding motorcycles through an agave field without wearing pants. The video humorously questioned the essence of tequila and highlighted the couple's carefree and adventurous spirit.
