Spicy Marinade

Main Ingredients

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, hot sauce, minced garlic, cayenne pepper, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Whisk until well blended.

Chicken Preparation

  1. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

  2. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, slice the red bell pepper, jalapeño, and red onion. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Place chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 5

    Grill the Vegetables

    During the last few minutes of cooking the chicken, add the sliced vegetables to the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove chicken and vegetables from the grill. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the grilled chicken and vegetables before serving.
