Instructions
CHICKEN INASAL
- Dissolve sugar and salt in vinegar. Combine vinegar and all other ingredients for the marinade in a blender and pulse for 2-3 minutes until all are cut into tiny pieces.
- Place chicken pieces in a ziplock or any food-grade plastic. Pour in the marinade into the plastic with the chicken and seal. Refrigerate for at least an hour but overnight will be better.
- Take out from the fridge when ready to cook.
- Prepare the basting sauce by simply combining all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Grill the chicken pieces until cooked through while basting both sides with the annatto oil from time to time.
- Transfer grilled chicken on a serving dish and let rest for 3-5 minutes. Serve with rice and chicken Annato oil sauce.
CHICKEN ANNATTO OIL
- Boil chicken skin in water for 15 minutes until almost dry and oil is rendered.
- Pour in oil and cook for 10 minutes until crispy.
- Remove chicken skin and add the Annatto seeds. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and run the oil through a strainer to remove leftover bits and pieces. Transfer the chicken annato oil in a jar.
Notes
- The ingredients for Chicken Annato Oil in this recipe will give you about 1 ½ to 2 cups of oil. More than enough for 2 pounds of chicken. You can store the leftover for future use or for other dishes.
