Adobo Marinade

Method

Adobo Marinade

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, cumin, chili powder, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Crema

  1. 3

    Make the Crema

    In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

Cooking Chicken

  1. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill or cook the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 5

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
