Grilled Chicken Sinaloa-Style With Grilled Corn, Black Bean And - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 cup rice vinegar
    1/4 cup canola oil
    1 lime, juiced
    1 orange, juiced
    2 tablespoons dried ancho chile powder
    1 tablespoon spanish paprika
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon allspice
    1/4 teaspoon arbol chile (cayenne)
    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    2 whole chickens, cut into 8 pieces (3# each)
    kosher salt
    fresh ground black pepper
    wood chips
    Relish
    kosher salt
    fresh ground black pepper
    1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed thoroughly before cooking
    8 green onions
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    8 ears grilled corn (kernels removed)
    1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
    1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    1 lime, juiced
    2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
Preparation
    Whisk the rice vinegar, canola oil, lime juice, orange juice, ancho chile powder, paprika, cinnamon, allspice, chile de arbol, ground cloves and garlic in a bowl.
    Place the chicken pieces on a large baking dish. Pour the vinegar mixture over the chicken and rub it into each piece of chicken. Cover the chicken and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 8 hours.
    Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Remove the chicken from vinegar mixture and place on a baking sheet.
    Heat a grill for indirect grilling. Add the wood chips to the coals or to a wood chip box and place on the gas briquettes. Close the grill cover and heat the grates about 10 minutes.
    Place the chicken over the direct heat, skin-side down. Grill the chicken until golden brown and slightly charred - about 5 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook 5 minutes longer. Move the chicken to the cooler part of the grill, close the grill cover and continue grilling until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken registers 160 degrees F for white meat and 165 degrees F for dark meat, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a platter and loosely tent with foil.
    Serve with Relish:
    Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small pot over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoons pepper and stir in the quinoa. Cover the pot and cook until the quinoa is tender and the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let sit covered. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and transfer to a large bowl.
    Heat the grill to high for direct grilling. Grill corn (no directions given) - your preference. Brush the green onions with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the onions until soft and slightly charred, about 2 minutes each side. Remove the onions from the grill and coarsely chop. Stir the corn, beans, olive oil, and lime juice in a bowl. Add the quinoa and chopped green onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Keep the relish at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Stir in the cilantro and oregano and serve along with grilled chicken.
