Step 1

Place all the ingredients for the adobo marinade into a mini food processor or the small insert to a regular sized food processor.

Step 2

Process until the marinade is mostly smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.

Step 3

Place the chicken thighs in a non-reactive bowl and pour the adobo marinade over the top. Mix to thoroughly combine, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but overnight is best for the most flavor.

Step 4

When you’re ready to cook the chicken, preheat the grill over high heat. I like to lightly oil the grill before preheating it just to make sure the chicken doesn’t stick.

Step 5

When the grill is hot, place the chicken thighs on the grill and lower the heat to medium. You want to maintain a temperature around 400ºF.

Step 6

Grill until the chicken easily comes loose from the grill, 6-8 minutes. Turn the chicken and cook until done in the center, about 5-6 more minutes.

Step 7

Let the chicken cool slightly, then chop into bite sized pieces and serve with your favorite burrito bowl or taco bowl fixings.
