Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 ounces silver tequila
• 2 limes, juiced
• 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 4 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
• 4 chicken thighs, bone-in, skin removed

Preparation

Step 1

Put the vegetable oil, tequila, lime juice, chipotle pepper, cumin, chili powder, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a small food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Put the marinade in a plastic bag along with the chicken. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and put on grill. Grill, turning until cooked through, about 14 to 18 minutes. Remove from the grill, to a large plate and when cool enough to handle, remove the skin and bones and shred. Keep warm.
