Mojito Grilled Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 lbs boneless skinless chicken pieces (thighs and breasts)
    MARINADE
    1/3 cup frozen concentrated orange juice, thawed
    3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    2 teaspoons grated lime zest
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
    1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    1 teaspoon minced garlic
Preparation
    Place all the marinade ingredients into a blender or food processor and blend to liquify.
    Pour marinade into a plastic Ziplock baggie.
    Place the chicken in the baggie with the marinade; squish around to coat the pieces.
    Refrigerate chicken in the marinade for AT LEAST 8 hours, but no more than 24 hours. Turn the baggie every few hours.
    When ready to grill: preheat grill to medium heat.
    Place chicken on grill (discard the marinade) and grill over direct heat for about 8-9 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.
