Chili Lime Marinade Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, and lime juice. Season with chili powder, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Place the chicken in a shallow baking dish with the sauce, and stir to coat. Cover, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the grill for medium-high heat. Thread chicken onto skewers, and discard marinade.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill skewers for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken juices run clear.

Steps:

• Grate the zest of 1 lime; cut the lime in half. Combine zest with the chili powder, brown sugar, thyme, cumin, chipotle powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Squeeze the zested lime over the steak and use the lime halves to rub the juice into the meat. Rub the spice mixture on both sides of the steak. Let stand at room temperature, 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium high. Brush the grates with vegetable oil. Grill the steak until well browned, about 8 minutes. Flip and grill until a thermometer inserted sideways into the center registers 130 degrees F to 140 degrees F, 5 to 7 more minutes for medium rare (the thinner edges of the steak will be cooked to medium).
• Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Season with salt and thinly slice against the grain. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, fish sauce, garlic, jalapeños, and brown sugar. (Or, in a 12-ounce/180-ml or larger jar with a lid, combine the ingredients, cover, then shake vigorously.) Dip a piece of lettuce in the dressing and check the seasonings; add more jalapeños, if you like. The sauce should have a balance of hot, sweet, sour, and salty, which is typical of Thai foods. Keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Whisk together lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, vinegar, chile paste and green onions in a bowl.

Steps:

• Combine the shrimp with the rest of the ingredients. Grill until just opaque. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk together oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder and garlic in a large, shallow dish to make a marinade.
• Arrange meat or fish in dish and rub all over with marinade, then cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, turning occasionally.

Steps:

• Combine ancho chile powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and chipotle powder in a medium glass or ceramic bowl. Whisk in canola oil and lime juice until well combined; thin with additional canola oil if mixture seems too thick.
• Arrange chicken in a glass or ceramic baking dish and pour the marinade over the chicken, covering it completely. Marinate in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet; do not crowd. Discard any excess marinade.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the centers, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 to 6 minutes.
