Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 1/4 pounds (1 kg) skinless, boneless pork shoulder (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
2/3 cup fresh lime juice (about 5 limes)
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
2/3 cup fresh orange juice (about 3 oranges)
4 garlic cloves, finely grated
2 3/4 teaspoons Morton kosher salt (0.63 oz/18 g)
2 teaspoons recado de todo clase* or 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill
1 medium red onion (10.1 oz/287 g), quartered
8 medium radishes, thinly sliced
Sliced avocado
Cilantro leaves and tender stems
Warm tortillas de maíz*
Salsa de zanahoria (carrot salsa)*
Chiles habaneros encurtidos (charred pickled habaneros)*
Lime wedges
*recipe available in cookbook

Steps:

  • Place the pork shoulder on a parchment-lined sheet pan and freeze, uncovered, until almost completely frozen, for about 2 hours.
  • Using a very sharp knife, thinly slice the pork crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick pieces. Transfer to a large zip-top freezer bag set inside a large bowl and refrigerate until ready to marinate.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the lime zest and juice, orange zest and juice, garlic, salt and recado de todo clase. Pour over the pork, seal the bag and squeeze the bag to coat the pork. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 90 minutes.
  • Prepare a gas grill for high heat. Use tongs and an old, clean kitchen towel to brush the grates with oil. (Alternatively, prepare a charcoal grill for high heat.)
  • Remove the pork from the marinade, shaking off any excess; brush off the garlic and zests. Grill the pork, turning once, until charred, for 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Cut into 2-inch pieces.
  • Grill the onion quarters, turning them occasionally, until charred on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board. Cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces and separate the individual layers of the onion.
  • Arrange the pork on a large platter. Top with the charred onion, radish slices, avocado slices and cilantro. Serve with the warm tortillas de maíz, salsa de zanahoria, chiles habaneros encurtidos and lime wedges.

3 teaspoons minced garlic
2 (3/4 pound) whole pork tenderloins

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: For the best flavor, use fresh oranges and thyme. If you don't have fresh thyme, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Zest your oranges: The zest of an orange is the outermost layer of the peel. It's packed with flavor, so be sure to zest your oranges before you juice them. You can use a microplane grater or a vegetable peeler to zest your oranges.
  • Don't overcook your chicken: Chicken is best when it's cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. If you overcook it, it will be dry and tough.
  • Let your chicken rest: After you cook your chicken, let it rest for a few minutes before you slice it. This will allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful chicken.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Orange-thyme chicken is delicious served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Orange-thyme sauce and marinade is a versatile and flavorful way to prepare chicken. Whether you're grilling, roasting, or baking your chicken, this sauce and marinade will add a delicious citrusy and herbal flavor. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook chicken, give orange-thyme sauce and marinade a try. You won't be disappointed!
