    Sauce: Remove and discard seeds from pasilla chile. Coarsely chop chile and cover with boiling water. Soak for 20 to 30 minutes. Drain, and put in a food processor with achiote paste and olive oil. Puree. Add the 3/4 cup marinade and blend until smooth.

    To use: Brush on skewers of meat. Broil or grill until meat is done, about 5 minutes, basting with marinade several times. Brush again before serving.
