Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp garlic, chopped
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 small chipotle pepper, chopped (optional)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp kosher salt
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
1 1/2 tsp fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions:

Mix together the garlic, onions, orange juice, and lime juice in a bowl.
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan til just smoking.
CAUTION: slide the contents of the bowl into the hot oil — be very careful because the liquid could splatter. You might want to use oven mits.
Simmer for 5 minutes to soften the onions and garlic. Season the marinade with the rest of the ingredients.
CAUTION: Pour everything into a blender (remove lid for hot air to release) or food processor and pulse 3 times to blend (another alternative is to use an immersion blender). Which ever method you use, just use caution with the hot liquids.
Pour into a glass container and cool to room temperature; cover and refrigerate.
Mojito Marinade keeps for up to 2 weeks.
