This was posted in response to a request. I'm going to make it for my grandson who is part portuguese - a "half chop"!! The timing doesn't include overnight marinating.

Categories     Chicken

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon Angostura bitters
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce, to taste
1 dried hot red chili pepper
1 fresh chili pepper (such as jalapeno)
2 cloves garlic
2 lbs whole chicken breasts, with skin and bone

Steps:

  • Combine the lime juice, vinegar, paprika, bitters and hot pepper sauce in a glass baking dish.
  • Wearing kitchen gloves, split the dried chili with a sharp paring knife and remove the seeds.
  • Do the same with the jalapeno pepper.
  • Mash the peppers with the garlic into a smooth paste using a mortar or an electric spice grinder.
  • Add the paste to the lime mixture in the baking dish and combine.
  • Toss the chicken pieces and swish them in the marinade until they are completely coated.
  • Cover and let marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill or broil until cooked through and burnished, about 20 minutes on each side.
  • Baste frequently with the marinade.
  • If the chicken looks like it is beginning to burn, move it farther away from the heat source.
  • Serve hot with chilled orange sections and plenty of napkins.
