How to Make Mayan Chicken W Spicy Orange Paste
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup orange zest, 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 tablespoon cumin, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to your spice preference), 1/4 cup olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs to the bowl and ensure they are thoroughly coated in the marinade.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours, or preferably overnight, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.
- Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
