I loved the way this recipe sounded but like others, I made a few changes.I used Trader Joe"s cubed frozen garlic (2) and Trader Joe"s frozen cilantro (2) instead of the oregano. I also substituted olive oil for the other oil. I added a tsp or so of pico/pica original taco sauce to the marinade and grilled the chicken legs on medium for 25-30 mins. AWESOME!! I made some cornbread and a salad with romaine,arugula, red pepper, gorganzola cheese and croutons with Trader Joe"s champagne pear dressing. Mmmmmm delicious summer dinner!!

Tasted terrific and was super easy. I used this on boneless chicken breast pounded flat with a meat mallet, and cooked on a George Foreman grill 6 min.

Very good marinade. Overall, the chicken turned out moist and citrusy with a little kick from the red pepper flakes. I used olive oil vs. veg. oil and cut the boneless chicken into chunks before marinating to make kabobs. I also added some white wine vinegar to tenderize the chicken. I didn't have fresh oregano so I used dried. I let this marinate for 8 hours and skewered this with red and green peppers, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.

Unfortunately, this didn't work too well for us. I used bone in thighs & it marinated in the fridge for 2 days, but it really didn't get much flavor. It was juicy, just not very flavorful.

I loved this recipe. I can't believe the difference it made in the taste of chicken. I love spicy so I used both cayenne pepper and crushed red pepper flakes. I will use this again.

FANTASTIC starter recipe for me. I, too, will have to up the heat. I used ground red pepper in the hopes to "hot it up" (per the reviews). Will need more or maybe both ground and flakes! Anyway, used this on chicken thighs and legs ~ grilled on hardwood charcoal. YUM! My picky 14 year old LOVED it! Can't wait to try it again. Used olive oil (personal preference) instead of veg oil and ground garlic instead of fresh. I was in a hurry and didn't marinade it long, either. Will use this one again, for sure!!

This chicken is really really good. I used boneless breasts and let them marinate for about 2 hours. We didn't think this was spicy, but it was great tasting chicken.

Gold Star! The only tweak to the recipe was once I had the chicken breasts marinating in the sauce I added a dash of red pepper flakes to each breast - just a little something extra. I would also recommend trying "Chili-Lime Chicken Kabobs".

Great simple recipe. Made it for the first time lastnight my wife and I both enjoyed it. Not quite spicy enough for me, will have to add something to spice it up a bit. Very tasty though - had it with a mix spinach, romain lettuce mixed with veggies salad.

I rarely review unless the recipe is really good and this one is that good. It is the best marinade I have found on this site so far. I followed the instructions exactly and everyone devoured it. I love the hint of heat that wasn't too much even for my six year-old. Thanks for sharing this one!

I love this recipe. I only changed one thing: I used EVOO instead of the vegetable oil. Fabulous, and I will be making it again soon!

Absolutely delicious and easy to make! This is our favorite chicken recipe! Instead of vegetable oil, I always use olive oil, I just this the flavor is better. And I never seem to have any limes on hand, so I just add some lime juice. So flavorful and juicy!

This is my husband's favorite!!!! The marinade is easy to make and it doesn't need a long time to marinade (15 minutes min). We eat this with mashed potatoes, rice, steamed broccoli. I also make fajitas with it and it is excellent!!!
