POLLO ASADO CHICKEN

Ingredients
3 lbs Chicken (I used bone-in skinless chicken thighs)  once ,I also use boneless chicken breast and cook them for a total of 20 minutes, but you constantly flip them so they don’t burn. A little blackened is good. So don’t fret 😂
1 tsp garlic powder 
2 tsp Oregano
Using breast... I cut the breast into 3 pieces and pound them to make them thin. If you don’t have a mallet put the chicken in a freezer bag and use a hammer 🔨. Cover your hammer with a plastic bag.1 tbsp Paprika 
2 tsp Cumin Powder
1/4 Cup Orange Juice (fresh juice )
 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
1/2 tsp Chili Flakes
1/4 Cup Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Black Pepper 
1 tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
Directions
1. Heat grill to medium heat, about 375 to 400 degrees. 
2. Pollo Asado Marinade: In a  bowl, combine all marinade ingredients. Taste and adjust salt and lime to sharp bold taste before adding chicken.
3. Add in chicken. Rub marinade paste over the chicken, cover all sides. Cover and refrigerate for at-least 30 minutes to marinate. (up-to overnight). But not necessary 
4. When ready to grill, brush hot grill with oil. Remove chicken from marinade.
5. Grilled Pollo Asado: Place chicken on grill. Cover and grill chicken until internal temperature (in thickest part of thigh) or breast.reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit on instant read thermometer. (about 20 minutes) flip every 4-5 minutes.
6. Serve with side of beans, rice, salsa. Add to tacos or burrito bowls. Extra splash of lime before serving is optional.
