Add all the Pollo Asado Marinade ingredients to the bowl. Cover and puree until very smooth. Place the chicken pieces in a large baking dish. Pour (or scoop) the marinade over the chicken. Then toss to coat the chicken pieces in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but up to 12 hours.
Chicken: Many recipes start with pre-sliced or boneless chicken, like the pollo asado that Trader Joe’s sells, but I like to use a whole, bone-in chicken cut up into finger-lickin’-sized pieces. Cooking with bone-in chicken brings extra flavor and moisture to your final dish.
The majority of ingredients in this Asado de pollo recipe are part of the marinade. We will need: Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs: Trim the excess fat from the chicken thighs for the cleanest flavor and texture. Oil: Use either Avocado oil or olive oil.
To sear the chicken on the stove, cook for 10-12 minutes on medium-high heat. Grill on 350-400 degrees for 15-30 minutes. To bake pollo asado, bake on 425 degrees for 25-30 minutes for boneless chicken. Bone-in chicken thighs will need 10-20 minutes additional time. Air fry the chicken on 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes.
