Ingredientes
Marinade:
- 1 tbsp Achiote paste (Annato Seeds paste)
- 1 ts Salt
- 1/2 Orange (the juice)
- 1/4 C White Vinegar
- 1 Garlic Clove (big or 2 small ones)
Chicken:

Elaboración paso a paso
- Blend the marinade ingredients all together.
- Do a few cuts on your chicken pieces to help it marinate better.
- Put your chicken pieces into a sealable bag or bow, adding the marinade.
- Let it rest on the fridge for at least three hours. (If you don't have time, you can cook it right away, but I highly recomend to let it rest to intensify the flavors).
- Cut two pieces of aluminium foil. Place all your vegetables in one of them. Add your chicken and the marinade at the top of your vegetables.
- Cover with the other piece of aluminium foil and seal it.
- Steam it for around 40 to 50 minutes.
