Flavorful and spicy, it's one of our favorite ways to fix chicken these days. It's especially handy when you mix it up the night before,and marinade overnight. I usually serve it with Black beans,yellow rice and a fruit salad with mango, strawberries and kiwi. Ingredients:
1/2 cup bitter orange juice (or 1/4 c orange juice c grapefruit juice) |
1/4 cup grapefruit juice |
3 -4 garlic cloves, chopped |
1 -4 teaspoon minced habanero (or use jalapenos) |
2 tablespoons cilantro, fresh, chopped |
2 tablespoons anchiote oil (annato, or mix vegetable oil with 1 tsp paprika) |
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
2 teaspoons ground cumin |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper |
1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts (i use boneless, skinless breasts cut into wide stips) |
Directions:
1. Combine everything except the chicken and whisk until well mixed.
2. Add chicken and coat throughly. Cover and chill 2-4 hours or overnight.
3. Stir once in a while.
4. Grill over medium to hot oiled grill 5-7 min on each side until chicken.
5. is white in the center. Serve with beans and rice.
