Flavorful Grilled Peruvian Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

• Marinade Mixture:
• 3 tbsp of soy sauce
• 1 tbsp of grapeseed oil
• 1 ½ tsp of ground cumin
• 1 ½ tsp of sweet paprika
• 1 tsp of minced garlic
• 1 tsp of thyme leaves
• ½ tsp of freshly cracked black pepper
• ½ tsp of dried oregano
• ½ tsp of granulated onion
• ¼ tsp of ground coriander
• ¼ tsp of ground turmeric
• ¼ tsp of dry mustard powder
• A pinch of ground cinnamon
• Additional Ingredients:
• 1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breast, butterflied
• Juice of ½ a lime

Step 1

Mix together a flavorful blend of soy sauce, grapeseed oil, an array of aromatic spices like cumin, paprika, garlic, thyme, pepper, oregano, granulated onion, coriander, turmeric, mustard powder, and a hint of cinnamon in a spacious resealable bag. Introduce the chicken into this fragrant concoction, ensuring it's well-dressed in the marinade, then expel any extra air before sealing the bag. Let the flavors meld by refrigerating for a generous window of 8 to 24 hours.

Step 2

As the outdoor grill heats up to a toasty 500 degrees F (260 degrees C), take a moment to lightly oil the grate for a smooth cooking experience. To amp up the tangy notes, consider incorporating a splash of fresh lime juice into the marinade mix while awaiting the grill's readiness.

Step 3

Once everything is set, place the marinated chicken on the preheated grill, allowing it to cook until reaching a juicy tenderness with no pink center and clear juices flowing, remember to turn it over once during the process, usually taking around 7 to 8 minutes in total.
