3 oranges

1 lime

2 to 3 canned chipotle chilies -- or to taste

3 cloves garlic (1 t)

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon cumin seed

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoon wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon salt

Source: FOOD day, July 9, '91 From: Valerie Whittle 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.
