El Pollo Loco
This Chicken Recipe is Crazy Good !
To Marinate the Chicken
Cut the Chicken Breasts into appropriately sized cutlets. I often will butterfly then separate the breast to promote marination (its also how I
was served the first time I had this dish).
Place in a bag with a generous amount of marinade. You can save the remaining (unused) marinade for later use. Marinate the chicken for at
least 24 hours (I prefer 48).
When ready to cook:
Grill the chicken over coals or on a grill till cooked through yet still juicy. Remove to a hotel pan, cover with foil and place into a warmer till
needed.
Place a portion of pre browned chorizo on the griddle. When It looks crispy and oily top it with a piece of the grilled chicken. Allow to heat for
one minute then flip so the chicken rests in the chorizo fat.
Cook till well heated.
Plate topped with the Chorizo, a bland white cheese sauce. Garnish with fresh chopped onion, tomato and cilantro.
