Total time: 35 min., plus marinating time

Ingredients

¼ cup GOYA® Extra Virgin Olive Oil

2 tbsp. GOYA® Lemon Juice

2 tsp. freshly chopped cilantro

2 tsp. GOYA® Minced Garlic, or 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped

2 tsp. dried oregano leaf

½ tsp. GOYA® Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning with Pepper

½ tsp. ground cumin

½ tsp. red pepper flakes

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves, about 2 lbs. (skin removed before eating)

Directions

1. In bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, cilantro, garlic, oregano, Adobo, cumin and red pepper flakes; transfer to large zip-top bag. Add chicken; turn to coat completely. Transfer to refrigerator; marinate at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for best results. Bring chicken to room temperature 30 minutes before grilling, discard marinade.
2. Place chicken skin side-up on foil-lined baking tray.
