Ingredients

4 servings

For the chicken

3 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks (about 8 pieces)
1 tsp fine sea salt

For the mojo marinade

¾ cup fresh orange juice (from about 2 large oranges)
¼ cup fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
¼ cup olive oil
6 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp ground ginger
1 tsp fine sea salt
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

For serving

2 tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)

Instructions

1
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, turmeric, ground ginger, 1 tsp salt, and apple cider vinegar until combined.
2
Reserve 1/3 cup of the mojo marinade in a small saucepan and set aside — this portion will be used as a finishing sauce and must not contact the raw chicken.
