Put the chicken fats and skin in a wok and put over low fire. Let it simmer and release its oil.

Remove the fats and chicken skin from the pan once they turn golden brown.

Put garlic and achuete powder/seeds in the chicken oil. Stir until the color is fully incorporated.
-
Remove from heat and strain the oil to remove the aromatic residues.

Put into a container and set aside for later use.

In a large bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients except the chicken parts. You may use your hands in mixing them to ensure that everything is properly incorporated.
