Recipe: El Pollo Loco Chicken (Citrus)

Misc.
El Pollo Loco Chicken (Citrus)
Serving: 4

1 Whole Chicken cut in pieces w/skin
1/3 Cup Lemon juice
1/3 Cup Lime juice
1/3 Cup Canola or vegetable oil
1 Teaspoon Ground turmeric (ground bijol or an envelope of Saz n con Achiote)
1/2 Teaspoon Garlic salt
1/4 Teaspoon Black pepper

Briefly simmer the cut-up chicken in a deep-sided skillet, keeping pieces in single layer without crowding them, until the meat appears milkywhite and the juices run clear, no longer pink.

Allow to cool in the broth, uncovered, while you prepare the basting sauce. Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up on broiler pan in single layer and baste with enough of mixture to evenly coat skin side.

Turn and baste other side. Turn again to skin side up and broil 6" from the heat, brushing with additional sauce every few minutes until skin is really crispy and golden brown, approximately 5 to 8 minutes for large pieces.

BASTING MIXTURE-Mix juices, oil, turmeric (or Bijol or Saz n), salt and pepper. This makes enough to baste nine pieces.
