Grilled Mexican Chicken Thighs image

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 clove Garlic - peeled
1 Small Onion
1 tablespoon Oregano - fresh, use 1 tsp if dried
2 teaspoon Ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne
1 pinch Cround cloves
1 tablespoon Peanut or other oil
2 tablespoon Fresh squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoon Freshly squeezed lime juice
1.5 pound Boneless chicken thighs
1 Chopped cilantro for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat a gas grill, start a wood or charcoal fire or preheat a broiler; the fire should be moderately hot, and the rack should be about 4 inches from the heat source.
  • Combine the garlic, onion, oregano, cumin, cayenne, cloves, salt, pepper and oil in a blender or small food processor, and blend until fairly smooth. Add the juices, taste and adjust seasoning; the flavors should be powerful.
  • Smear sauce over chicken; if time allows, marinate 30 minutes or so. Grill 6 to 8 minutes a side, or until meat is nicely browned and cooked medium or better on the inside. (Thighs with bones will take longer, about 20 minutes total.) Serve, garnished with the cilantro.
