This spicy marinade owes its unusual flavor to the
chipotle, a smoked jalapeno chile. Chipotles are
usually sold canned in tomato paste. Look for them at
Mexican and Latin American markets. Adobo marinade
goes particularly well with pork.

Juice the oranges and lime. Finely chop chilies and
garlic. Place citrus juices, chilies, garlic,
oregano, cumin, black pepper, vinegar and salt in
blender and puree until smooth.

Makes enough marinade for 1 1/2 to 2 pounds meat or
chicken.
