Pibil Chicken Thigh is a flavorful dish rooted in traditional Mexican cuisine, specifically from the Yucatán region. This dish is made by marinating chicken thighs in a blend of citrus juices, typically bitter orange, and seasoning them with achiote paste — a vibrant mixture made from annatto seeds, garlic, and spices like cumin and oregano. The chicken is then slow-cooked to maintain tenderness while imparting a smoky, tangy flavor. Rich in protein, Pibil Chicken Thigh provides sustained energy and muscle support, while the marinade boasts antioxidants from citrus components. However, its sodium content may be elevated due to the seasoning and marinade, which should be considered for those monitoring salt intake. Typically enjoyed with rice, tortillas, or veggies, it offers a wholesome and diverse nutritional profile when paired with balanced sides.
