Ingredients
1 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
5 canned minced chipotles
4 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon orange zest
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoons wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Combine the orange juice and lime juice in a sauce pan, and boil until only 1/2 cup of liquid remains. Place this and the remaining ingredients in a blender, and puree to a smooth paste.
- Spread this paste on the food to be marinated. In the refrigerator, marinate seafood for 2 hours, poultry for 4 hours, and meat overnight, turning twice.
- Marinated food may be sauteed, broiled or roasted in the oven.
