Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large resealable plastic bag, whisk together the soy sauce, grapeseed oil, cumin, paprika, garlic, thyme, pepper, oregano, granulated onion, coriander, turmeric, mustard powder, and cinnamon. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the butterflied chicken breast to the bag, ensuring it's fully coated in the marinade. Squeeze out any excess air, seal the bag tightly, and refrigerate for a minimum of 8 hours, or ideally, up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to deeply penetrate the chicken. (5 minutes)

03

Step

About 30 minutes before grilling, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and stir in the fresh lime juice into the marinade, ensuring even distribution. This will add a bright, zesty note to the final dish. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill to a sizzling 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Once hot, lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Carefully place the marinated chicken on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 7-8 minutes total, turning once halfway through. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, indicating it's perfectly cooked. (8 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a finely chopped chili pepper to the marinade.
If you don't have grapeseed oil on hand, olive oil or another neutral-flavored oil can be substituted.
Serve this Grilled Pollo a la Brasa with a side of rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
