Grilled Chicken Adobo Recipes

GRILLED ADOBO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Step 1 Heat grill to medium-high heat. Using paper towels, pat chicken dry. In large bowl, mix together chicken and olive oil, tossing to coat completely. Sprinkle chicken all over with adobo. Step 2 Place chicken on grill skin-side down. Cook until skin turns dark golden brown, about 10 minutes, checking after 5 min. Flip chicken; cook until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature will register 165°F on instant-read thermometer), about 10 minutes more.

DELICIOSO ADOBO GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients in a small glass jar with an airtight lid and shake to blend. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 weeks.
• Season chicken with the adobo seasoning. Heat a grill pan to medium heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray or drizzle with oil. Place the chicken on the grill pan and cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side depending on the size of the breasts.
• When chicken is cooked through, slice 2chicken breasts for the fishy-dillas and reserve the remaining 4 for the chicken salad.
• Note: This recipe for adobo is a staple seasoning for many of my Latin recipes. You can make a large batch, store it in an airtight container and use it as a flavor enhancer in your favorite dishes.

GRILLED ADOBO-RUBBED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the oil in medium heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 3 minutes longer. Add the chiles and cook until darkened on both sides, about 1 minute. Add the broth, bring to a boil and boil until the chiles are soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender, add the vinegar and 1 tablespoon water, let cool slightly and puree. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a grill or large grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, rub about half of the adobo mixture all over the chicken. Sear the chicken breast-side down until grill marks appear, about 6 minutes. Brush some adobo sauce on the other side of the chicken. Turn the grill down to medium and set one side of the grill to indirect heat (see Cook's Note for instructions for the grill pan). Turn the chicken breast-side up, place over the indirect heat side of the grill and cover. Cook the chicken, basting with the extra adobo sauce every 20 minutes, until a meat thermometer registers an inner temperature of 165 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Serve with corn tortillas, lime wedges, avocado and cilantro.
