BBQ Cilantro and Lime Chicken - Delicious!

Описание: Healthy, affordable, delicious, my Cilantro Lime Chicken will be a hit at your next BBQ!

Method:

Rinse chicken legs in cold water and pat dry with paper towel. Score the chicken, slicing 3-4 incisions down the leg of the chicken until you hit the bone. Set aside into a shallow bowl.

In a food processor, blitz together:
1 handful of cilantro
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp kosher salt
5 cloves garlic
1 tsp cracked black pepper
Juice of one lime
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Blitz the marinade to a chunky consistency and pour it over top of the scored chicken. Toss the chicken in the marinade to coat thoroughly.
Refrigerate for 1-3 hours.

Fire up some coals in a chimney starter (or preheat a gas grill) and wait until a white ash forms around the coals.

Place the marinated chicken legs on the cool side of the grill and flip constantly for 15-20 minutes to prevent burning. You can alternate between the hot and cool sides to speed up the cooking process. You can also close the lid of the grill to speed up the process. Your chicken is ready when the juices run clear and the meat is no longer pink.

Remove from the grill, serve with some spring mix, lime wedges and a few extra sprigs of cilantro.

Devour!!!!
