El Pollo Loco knock-off recipe. This is it, from Nancy Berry from the Orange County Register newspaper. The company used to sell a dry seasoning packet that you just added the juice too, but I cant find it anymore. This is as close as you will get to the origianal

Time P1DT48m

Yield 1 chicken dinner, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ounces pineapple juice
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon mild chili pepper, remove stem and seeds from chiles, finely minced (Anaheim or California)
8 drops yellow food coloring (but accurate) (optional)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 lbs frying chicken, cut up

Steps:

  • Marinate chicken in zip-lock bag over-nite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup marinade to baste while cooking, making sure the chicken cooks on both sides minutes AFTER basting the final time--we don't want our Italian friend Sal Monilla to show up :-).
  • Grill over indirect heat, turning 4 times, 12 minutes each time.
  • Serve with your favorite tortillas, rice and Borracho beans.
