Time 3h

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed if possible; save juiced orange halves)
1/4 cup lemon juice (save the juiced fruit)
1/4 cup lime juice (save the juiced fruit)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 whole garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
16 whole chicken legs
2 whole onions, peeled and quartered
32 soft taco-size flour tortillas
Serving suggestions: pico de gallo, refried beans, store-bought chipotle salsa

Steps:

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, salt, pepper and garlic cloves. Whisk together.
Place the chicken legs, juiced pieces of fruit and quartered onions in large plastic bags or a bowl. Pour the marinade over the top, tossing to combine. Cover with plastic wrap (if using bowl) or seal the bag up and marinate for at least 2 hours ... several hours is better. Toss a few times during the marinating process.
Preheat a grill. Grill the chicken legs until cooked all the way through, turning occasionally so the chicken is cooked on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes.
Separate the tortillas into 2 piles of 16, and then wrap each pile in foil and warm over the grill for 10 to 15 minutes.
Serve the chicken legs with the warm tortillas, pico de gallo, refried beans and chipotle salsa.

Ingredients

½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup lime juice
2 teaspoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 cloves garlic, smashed
2 small dried red peppers
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Steps:

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.
Grill chicken until no longer pink in the centers, 6 to 7 minutes per side, depending on thickness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
