  • Pollo Asado

    Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup orange juice (about 1 medium orange)
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 tablespoon lime juice (about 1/2 lime)
    • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon achiote powder
    • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
    • 1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
    • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
    • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
    • 2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
    • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
    • 2-3 pounds chicken thighs or legs

    Instructions

    1. Make the marinade: Add all ingredients except chicken in a small bowl. Whisk to combine.
    2. Marinate: Place chicken in a large gallon size ziploc bag and add the marinade. Close the bag, massage together to coat all the chicken and refrigerate for 2 to 6 hours. (Do not marinate longer than 8 hours or the chicken will get tough and begin to break down.)
