Ingredients
General Ingredients
Chipotle Marinade
Grilled Chicken
Fresh Salsa
Marinate the Chicken
1. Prepare the Marinade
In a blender or food processor, combine 2-3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 2 cloves of garlic, the juice of 1 lime, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth to create the marinade.
2. Marinate the Chicken
Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or bowl. Pour the chipotle marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Grill the Chicken
3. Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
4. Cook the Chicken
Remove the marinated chicken from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
5. Rest the Chicken
Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Prepare the Fresh Salsa
Serve
8. Plate and Garnish
Serve the grilled chicken breasts on a plate with a generous spoonful of fresh salsa on the side. Garnish with lime wedges or extra cilantro if desired.
