Chicken Marinated in Garlic, Chilies and Citrus Juices

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Whisk oil, orange and lime juices, ground and canned chilies and garlic in 15x10x2-inch baking dish to blend. Mix in onion. Add chicken halves and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.

   Step 2

   Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Remove chicken halves from marinade. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until chicken is cooked through, turning occasionally, about 40 minutes.

2. Step 3

   *Ground pasilla and ancho chilies are found in the spice section of some supermarkets.

Seed and stem chilies and finely grind in spice grinder, blender or coffee grinder.

   Step 4

   **Chipotle chilies canned in a spicy tomato sauce, sometimes called adobo, are available at Latin American markets, specialty foods stores and some supermarkets.
