Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:

Serves/Makes: 6
Ready in: > 5 hrs

15 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 tablespoon grated lemon zest

1 tablespoon grated orange zest

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Place the chicken between two sheets of waxed paper. Pound the chicken to a thickness of 1/4-inch. Place the chicken in a zip-top resealable bag.

Add all the remaining ingredients to the bag. Press the air out and seal the bag. Massage the ingredients to combine them and coat the chicken.

Place the chicken in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours (or overnight), turning the bag occasionally to evenly marinate the chicken.

When ready to cook the chicken, preheat a gas or charcoal grill.

Remove the chicken from the marinade. Discard the marinade.

Place the chicken on the grill and cook, turning as needed, until the juices run clear when the chicken is pierced with a fork.

Remove the pollo magnifico from the grill and let stand, lightly covered with foil, for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
