Orange-Achiote Marinade





Yields
Makes about 1/3 cup, enough to marinate 1 to 2 pounds meat

Notes: Achiote paste is sold in reddish orange blocks in Latino markets; if it's unavailable, use 1 more tablespoon paprika (1 tablespoon and 2 teaspoons total). The recipe for this marinade can be doubled. It's also delicious on pork. You can make the marinade up to 2 days before using; cover and chill.

 1/3 cup orange juice
 1 tablespoon salted red achiote paste (see notes)
 1 tablespoon soy sauce
 2 teaspoons paprika
 1 teaspoon instant chicken bouillon
 1 teaspoon minced garlic
 1/4 teaspoon pepper
