“Pollo Asado” or grilled chicken in English, is a very popular dish you can normally find in well-known franchised takeaways all over Mexico. It’s where spit-fired chicken is sold by the kilo, accompanied by warm tortillas, salsa, and limes. We cannot think of a better meal to make for your family! The simplicity of this Pollo Asado is what inspired this recipe. It’s a very easy and practical meal for you to prepare in the comfort of your own home. It also happens to be a great recipe to cook over the summer when the weather is nice and you’re able to get the barbecue up and running. The dish is all about the Pollo Asado seasoning, or marinade, and letting your chicken absorb all the flavours before cooking it. So make sure to leave enough time for marinating before cooking! You get better results and a more authentic Pollo Asado flavour when it’s cooked over charcoal on the barbecue. However, it’s also more convenient and absolutely fine if you’d prefer to cook it over the stove in your kitchen, and then finish it in the oven. If you want to do it the Mexican way, you absolutely have to serve this Pollo Asado recipe with warm Soft Taco Wraps, Chipotle Salsa and some limes to squeeze. Then, in order to make some tasty tacos, get ready to pick up that lovely meat and eat it with your hands the proper way. Don’t forget the lime!
