Chicken Marinade

Farro Verde

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the pasture-raised chicken to the marinade and ensure it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

    Remove stems and seeds from the dried ancho and guajillo chilies. Soak them in hot water for about 15 minutes until softened.
