1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Time P1DT48m

Yield 1 chicken dinner, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ounces pineapple juice
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon mild chili pepper, remove stem and seeds from chiles, finely minced (Anaheim or California)
8 drops yellow food coloring (but accurate) (optional)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 lbs frying chicken, cut up

Steps:

  • Marinate chicken in zip-lock bag over-nite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup marinade to baste while cooking, making sure the chicken cooks on both sides minutes AFTER basting the final time--we don't want our Italian friend Sal Monilla to show up :-).

  • Serve with your favorite tortillas, rice and Borracho beans.

EL POLLO LOCO CHICKEN/RICE BOWL



El Pollo Loco Chicken/Rice Bowl image

I'm crazier about black beans than pintos so I think I'd change that out. And the Serrano chile, I think I'd sub a jalapeno for that. Oh, to the rice...I'd add a handful of sauted onions, too. What I'm saying, make it your own. The prep time includes the marinade time.
