Method
Marinating the Chicken
- 1
In a blender or food processor, combine chipotle peppers, olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth to create the marinade.
- 2
Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Grilling the Chicken
- 3
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
- 4
Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is no longer pink in the center.
- 5
During the last 2 minutes of grilling, place the sliced hatch chile peppers on the grill to warm them up, and sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the chicken, allowing it to melt.
Assembling the Dish
- 6
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
- 7
Slice the grilled chicken and serve it topped with roasted hatch chile strips and sliced avocados. Enjoy your Socorros Grilled Chicken!
