@tony_and_maribel: Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month the best way we know how… around the grill with good food and lots of flavor. ❤️ We made this Pollo Chile Enchilado using @elmatadorseasoning Chicken Seasoning and Guajillo Sauce, then added chile de árbol because around here we like it spicy! 🌶️🔥 The chicken came out juicy, smoky, a little charred and packed with chile flavor. 🤤 🌶️ POLLO CHILE ENCHILADO Ingredients: • 8 lbs bone-in chicken pieces • ¼ cup @elmatadorseasoning Chicken Seasoning, or enough to season generously • 2 cups El Matador Guajillo Sauce • 14 dried chiles de árbol • ½ cup fresh orange juice • ⅓ cup fresh lime juice • ¼ cup avocado or vegetable oil • 8 garlic cloves • 2 tsp Mexican oregano • 1 tsp ground cumin • 1 tsp black pepper • Extra El Matador Guajillo Sauce for brushing Directions: Add the chicken to a large bowl and season generously with Chicken Seasoning, making sure every piece is well coated. Remove the stems from the chiles de árbol and lightly toast them in a dry skillet for about 10–15 seconds per side. Soak them in hot water for about 10 minutes to soften, then drain. Add the softened chiles to a blender along with the El Matador Guajillo Sauce, orange juice, lime juice, oil, garlic, oregano, cumin and black pepper. Blend until smooth. Pour the chile marinade over the seasoned chicken and mix well until every piece is completely coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. 🔥 Time to grill! Set up your grill for two-zone cooking at about 350°F. Place the chicken over indirect heat and cook, turning as needed. Once the chicken is almost done, brush generously with El Matador Guajillo Sauce and move it over direct heat for a few minutes to caramelize the sauce and get those beautiful charred edges. 🔥 Cook chicken to at least 165°F internal temperature. For thighs and leg quarters, we like taking them to around 175–185°F for extra tender and juicy chicken. And that’s our Pollo Chile Enchilado spicy, smoky and full of flavor. 🌶️🔥 #hispanicheritagemonth #polloenchilado #mexicanfood #grilling #bbq
