Grilled Moroccan Chicken

• doses: 4 servings
• tempo ativo: 15 minutes
• tempo total: 20 minutes

Ingredientes

1½ to 1¾ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (or chicken tenderloins)

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sugar

3 cloves garlic, (minced)

2 teaspoons paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon ground coriander

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon ground turmeric

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instruções

Place chicken breasts between 2 pieces of wax or parchment paper and, using a meat mallet, pound to an even ½-in (13-mm) thickness. (Skip this step if substituting chicken tenderloins.)

Mix all ingredients except chicken together in a small bowl or measuring cup. Place pounded chicken breasts inside a 1 gallon zip-lock bag. Add marinade to the bag, press air out and seal shut. Massage marinade into the breasts until evenly coated. Place the bag in a bowl in the refrigerator (to protect against leakage), and let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 5 hours or overnight.

Clean grill and preheat to high. Place chicken breasts on grill, spooning marinade over top. Grill, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Do not overcook.
