INGREDIENTS:

2 lbs. boneless, skinless Chicken Thighs or breasts

3 cloves of Garlic, pressed through a garlic press

1 teaspoon Cumin

1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon

1 teaspoon Sea Salt

1/2 teaspoon Fresh Cracked Pepper

2 tablespoons Fresh Cilantro, chopped

1 cup Beer

2 tablespoons Sesame Seed Oil ( you can use any oil you have on hand)

Juice of a large lime

DIRECTIONS:
Combine the garlic, spices, cilantro, sesame seed oil, beer and lime juice into a medium sized bowl. Place chicken thighs in a re-sealable bag or a large bowl, pour the marinade over top and toss to coat. Seal and place into fridge for 2-4 hours.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat, and place the chicken thighs onto the grates. Grill for 5-7 minutes per side or until cooked thoroughly. You can also cook on the stove or bake, it’s delicious any way you make it.
