Mexican Inspired Marinade

This is a great marinade for pork, flank steak or even chicken. You can add extra peppers for spiciness! Also, the longer the marinate, the spicier the meat.

Marinade:
2 cans of chipotle peppers in adobo
1-2 jalapeno peppers, coarsely chopped
3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 shallot, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
Small bunch parsley and cilantro, coarsely chopped
Salt and pepper
Water if necessary to thin

Directions:
Place all ingredients (except water) into blender and pulse just a few times to blend to a chunky consistency. Place over meat and marinate for at least 2 hours.

Put leftover marinade into a pot and bring to a boil then strain for a nice, spicy sauce.
