Time 8h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
½ cup olive oil
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup white cooking wine
3 chopped fresh jalapeno peppers, or to taste
2 tablespoons crushed garlic
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon lime juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound chicken drumsticks and thighs

Steps:

  • Combine cilantro, parsley, olive oil, soy sauce, cooking wine, jalapeno peppers, garlic, cumin, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a blender. Blend thoroughly until mixture is bright green with a slightly chunky consistency.
  • Pour marinade into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Set the remaining marinade aside.
  • Cook chicken on the preheated grill, brushing occasionally with reserved marinade, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
