State: il. | Copycat of El Pollo Loco Chicken and home made salsa
6 bonless skinless chicken breast
1 ( whole ) plastic lemon juice
1 ( whole ) plastic lime juice
1/3 cup of orange juice
1/3 cup of canola oil
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Put everything in a large freezer bag and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Then grill the chicken on outside grill until done and serve with
home made salsa and fat free flower tortia.
( The only way I can get the chicken down is with lots of salsa )
I roast 4 Anaheim chilies on top of the stove until black
1 large can of tomatoes ( diced )
1 whole bundle of calontro ( diced )
2 or 3 Tablespoons of ground garlic ( in the jar )
1 salsa seasoning package
4 green onions ( diced )
I put everything in the blender ( except the onions )
The roasted anaheim chilies give the salsa a smokey kind of flavor.
It will last refridgerated for about 3 or 4 days.

Thanks for the recipe. Do you know if you can cut the oil down to less the 1/3 of a cup and it still is okay?

Sounds great, can't wait to try it. I LOVE salsa. areellady, since this is a marinade, it probably isn't going to absorb all that oil.

Hi areellady,
Yes I think you can just omit the oil all together. I think I will do the same the next time I make it again.
On the salsa when I said roast the chilies....I just put them on top of the burners of my range in the kitchen.
I hope you enjoy this recipe. Have you ever had El Pollo Loco Chicken befor ? There is a chain of these resturants on the west coast.
