Recipe: Citrus-Marinated Chicken

Citrus-Marinated Chicken

3 lbs chicken parts
1 clove garlic -- halved
freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice -- 2 to 3 limes
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon dark brown sugar -- packed

Preheat grill or broiler.

Rinse chicken and pat dry. Rub pieces with garlic then sprinkle with pepper.

In a small bowl, mix together the oil, lime juice, orange juice, soy sauce and sugar.

Smear two-thirds of marinade on the chicken (reserving remaining marinade), coating each piece well. Place the chicken in a large bowl; cover with plastic wrap and let marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.

Place chicken in a broiler-safe pan if broiling. Grill or broil chicken on one side for 15 minutes. Baste the chicken pieces with the remaining marinade; then turn and grill untill they are cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
