POLLO ASADO

• Place onion, olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, cumin, garlic, red peppers, sea salt, and black pepper in a blender. Blend until smooth. Place chicken in a container or resealable plastic bag and pour marinade on top; toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

POLLO ASADA

Steps:

• Remove any excess fat from the chicken and add to a large Ziploc Bag.
• Add all the marinade ingredients to a medium bowl. Whisk to combine and pour over the chicken. Seal the bag and massage with your hands to ensure all surface areas of the chicken are coated.
• Place the bag in the refrigerator and let marinate for 1 hours to 4 hours.
• Pre-heat the grill to medium heat and set up for indirect cooking.
• Remove the chicken from the Ziploc bag and shake off any excess marinade. Discard the remaining marinade. Place the chicken on the direct heat side of the grill (skin side down if not using skinless). Grill for 10 minutes with the lid down. Flip the chicken and move to the indirect heat side of the grill and grill for 15-20 minutes. Grill until the internal temperature is 175 degrees F (or 165 degrees F for chicken breast)
• Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the Ziploc bag and shake off any excess marinade. Discard the remaining marinade. Transfer the chicken to a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 30-40 minutes, until the internal temperature is 175 degrees F (or 165 degrees F for chicken breast)

POLLO ASADO WITH BLACK BEANS AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 ̊ F. In a large bowl, whisk 3 tablespoons garlic, 2 teaspoons each cumin and oregano, the orange zest, 2 tablespoons each orange juice and vinegar and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
• Remove the chicken (with as much seasoning as possible) and season with salt and pepper; transfer skin-side up to a rack set on a baking sheet. Roast until browned and crisp and a thermometer inserted into the center registers 165 ̊ F, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the rice: Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, the remaining 1 tablespoon garlic, 1 teaspoon each cumin, oregano and salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice, beans and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then stir, reduce the heat and simmer until the rice begins to absorb the liquid, 8 to 10 minutes. Mix the rice and beans together; flatten the surface. Reduce the heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 25 minutes.
• Uncover the rice, add the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and fluff with a fork. Serve the chicken with the rice.

ASADO DE PUERCO (MEXICAN PORK STEW)

Steps:

• Combine pork cubes, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a Dutch oven. Cover and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring constantly, until water evaporates. Continue cooking until the pork browns in its rendered fat, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut tops off the dried chiles and remove seeds. Heat chiles in a large skillet over low heat until they start to soften. Do not toast. Place chiles in a bowl of hot water and soak for 20 minutes.
• Remove pork and set aside. Do not wash, wipe out, or clean the Dutch oven.
• Transfer chiles to a blender, reserving soaking water. Add cilantro, chicken bouillon, peppercorns, garlic, cinnamon stick, Mexican oregano, thyme, cumin seeds, bay leaves, and cloves. Pour in 1 cup soaking water and blend until smooth. Add 1 more cup soaking water, season with salt, and blend until completely smooth.
• Melt lard in the Dutch oven. Carefully add blended chile mixture and scrape up all browned bits. Bring to a boil and add pork. Reduce heat and cover partially, leaving about 1 inch open. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and reaches the desired consistency, 15 to 20 minutes.
