📝 Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup GOYA® Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp. GOYA® Lemon Juice
  • 2 tsp. freshly chopped cilantro
  • 2 tsp. GOYA® Minced Garlic or 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp. dried oregano leaf
  • 1 tsp. GOYA® Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning with Pepper, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces (breasts, legs, and/or thighs), about 2 lbs.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1In bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, cilantro, garlic, oregano, Adobo, cumin and red pepper flakes; transfer to large zip-top bag. Add chicken; turn to coat completely. Transfer to refrigerator; marinate at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for best results. Bring chicken to room temperature 30 minutes before grilling, discard marinade.
  2. 2Heat grill to medium heat. Add chicken (skin side-down) to hot, greased grill grates. Cook until well browned on skin side, (about 10 minutes). Flip chicken. Grill until cooked through (internal temperature will register 165F on quick-read thermometer when inserted into thickest part of meat without touching the bone), about 15 minutes more.
