Delicious Spicy Chicken

Here is my recipe for a delicious spicy chicken. You can grill this on a BBQ, or bake in an oven.

You’ll need:

• 1-cup fresh squeezed orange juice and chop up the orange
• 1/2-cup fresh lime juice, chop up the limes 
• 1-cup chopped cilantro.
• 1-cup chopped onion
• 6-garlic cloves minced
• 1/4-cup canola oil
• 2-tbs minced habanero pepper
• 1-tsp salt
• 1-tsp cracked black pepper
• 3-4 lb. chicken pieces bone

Directions:

1. In a bowl and mixed together the orange juice, lime juice, cilantro, onion, garlic, canola oil, habanero pepper, salt and black pepper
2. 3-4 lb. chicken pieces bone in and skin off parts of your choice
3. Place the marinade and the chicken into a large zip bag or bowl and refrigerate for 4-8 hours.
4. Heat your grill to high
5. Remove the chicken from the marinade and just sprinkle a little salt on all sides
6. Then sear the chicken on each side for 2-minutes
7. Then lower the heat to low and continue to cook the chicken till done, flipping along the way
8. Look for a internal temp of 165-170 degrees then remove the chicken to a platter and let rest for 10 minutes.
9. Top with some chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime. Lime slices on the side
