Lee's Tropical Chicken Marinade image

Lee doesn't cook. Ever. But after watching "Woman on Top," she got inspired to invent this marinade. Maybe I should change the name to Woman on Top Marinade. lol No matter what we call it, it's a good, tropical-tasting marinade that is great for grilled chicken or seafood.

Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 limes, juice of
1 head garlic, crushed (use less if you're not a garlic fan)
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
2 -3 chipotle peppers, minced
1 teaspoon meat tenderizer, makes the meat marinate faster (optional)
1 teaspoon adobo seasoning
1 cup sour orange juice or 1 cup regular orange juice, if you can't find sour OJ
1/4 cup olive oil
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients together and pour over chicken.
  • Marinate at least 30 minutes.
  • If you use the meat tenderizer, don't marinade for more than an hour or so, or the meat fibers will break down too much. If you leave it out, marinate as long as you'd like. I prefer overnight.
