To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have grilled chipotle adobo chicken using 11 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Grilled Chipotle Adobo Chicken:
- Prepare 3 tablespoons olive oil
- Make ready 2 ounce lime juice- fresh squezzed is best
- Take 2 large garlic cloves, finley chopped
- Take 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- Take 1 teaspoons paprika
- Make ready 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Take 1 tablespoon cumin
- Get 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- Make ready 4 teaspoons sugar
- Take 3 Tablespoon chipotle in adobo -pureed (I do a 7 ounce can in the food processor)
- Make ready 6-10 pieces boneless chicken thighs (you can use breast however thighs stay juicer:)
Habanero hot sauce works best, as very little is needed to increase the heat without changing the flavor of the marinade. Once the chicken is cooked, rested and chopped, it's time to build the tacos, burritos, salad or bowl of your dreams. Remove chicken from marinade and place on preheated grill. Now add the honey to RESERVED marinade and baste chicken.
Instructions to make Grilled Chipotle Adobo Chicken:
- Note if you double the marinade recipe you can use use half to marinate with and the other half to brush on the chicken as you grill.
- Mix together the marinade ingredients. If you like it spicier add a little more of the chipotle in adobo puree.
- Trim off excess fat from the chicken thighs-you do not need to get ride of all fat:)
- Place the chicken and the marinade in a gallon zip-lock bag and marinate for 6 hours to overnight. More time gives better flavor.
- I like to grill over charcoal (best) or gas until it reaches an internal temperature of 170 degree F. That being said if you only have an oven this can be baked at 350 degree F.until it reaches the appropriate temperature of 170 degree F.
- Let sit for 10 minutes after cooking and thinly slice. You may want to squeeze a little lime and adjust salt to your taste.
Immediately flip chicken and baste the unbasted side. Why this Chipotle Chicken is so good. Loaded with flavor, this southwestern marinade, is sweet from honey, a touch garlicky and has the warmth of adobo peppers - so good! That's what it's all about, a simple marinade and perfectly grilled chicken, no fuss, all taste. Blend until smooth, adding water as needed if too thick.
