Pollo Loco Chicken Wrap Recipes

Steps:

• Marinate chicken in zip-lock bag over-nite.
• Reserve 1/4 cup marinade to baste while cooking, making sure the chicken cooks on both sides minutes AFTER basting the final time--we don't want our Italian friend Sal Monilla to show up :-).
• Grill over indirect heat, turning 4 times, 12 minutes each time.
• Serve with your favorite tortillas, rice and Borracho beans.

Steps:

• Briefly simmer the cut-up chicken in a deep-sided skillet, keeping pieces in single layer without crowding them, until the meat appears milky white and the juices run clear, no longer pink. Allow to cool in the broth, uncovered, while you prepare the basting sauce.
• Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up on broiler pan in single layer and baste with enough of mixture to evenly coat skin side. Turn and baste other side. Turn again to skin side up and broil 6" from the heat, brushing with additional sauce every few minutes until skin is really crispy and golden brown, approximately 5 to 8 minutes for large pieces.
• BASTING MIXTURE.
• Mix juices, oil, turmeric, garlic salt and pepper. This makes enough to baste nine pieces.

Steps:

• Prepare a hot frying pan for frying the chicken breast. Place 2 Tablespoons of corn oil In the frying pan over a medium to high flame.
• Coat or Dress the chicken breast with powdered seasoning (not bread-crumbs). You can use Maggi complete seasoning, Adobo or similar powdered "all season".
• Fry the chicken breasts for about 3 minutes each side. Add ½ cup of water and the ½ chicken broth cube by breaking it into a powder with your fingers over the pan. Place a lid over you pan and cook on a low to medium flame for an additional 8 minutes. Turn off and remove chicken breasts (save the broth or liquid contents that is in the pan for later use). You may want to place the chicken on a paper towel covered plate to drain off the oil. Cut the breasts into portions or ½ inch cubes / strips.
• In a new frying pan add the other Tablespoon of Corn oil and place over a low flame.
• Fry the chopped onions for 2 to 3 minutes. Now add the cumin, oregano and the liquid you have reserved from when you fried the chicken breasts. Also add red wine and 1 teaspoon of fresh lime-juice. Cook or simmer on a low flame for a few minutes, sufficient to blend and integrate everything in the pan and evaporate some of the water. Turn off and allow to cool down.
• In a mixing bowl, add the ½ cup of mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon of lime juice, raisins, 1 tablespoon of tomato paste and salt & pepper to taste.
