Mayan Chicken with Spicy Orange Paste Preparation

From ”Global Grilling”, by Jay Solomon: In the Yucatan chicken and fish are flavored with a spicy paste called ”recado”; this version emphasizes the heat. Combine everything except the chicken and whisk until well mixed. Add chicken and coat throughly. Cover and chill 2-4 hours or overnight. Stir once in a while. Grill over medium to hot oiled grill 5-7 min on each side until chicken is white in the center. Serve with beans and rice. About 4 servings. Notes: Sour oranges are also called Seville orange; the orange/grapefruit mixture below is a pretty good duplicate. I used 2 Tbs of habanero paste and it went very well with a rice/bean mixture I threw together – spicy enough to need the blander rice and beans. I broiled the chicken since it was raining rather heavily at the time [email protected] CHILE-HEADS ARCHIVES From the Chile-Heads recipe list.
