Honey Lime Chipotle Chicken Recipe Marinate this chicken for a few hours and then glaze again while grilling. There may be some snow where you're at right now but there are a few nicer days to pull out the grill just to add to that spring fever a little bit! You can cook this in the oven also or broil on the lowest rack of your oven. The trick with chicken as I've said before is cooking slow enough to properly cook the chicken all the way through and still leave it moist and mouth watering. For those of you that like the outside a little crisp or “charred” in some cases (and many people do like that) just flash grill or broil at the end of your cooking time. This is really a great dish and can be paired with seasonal side dishes. For winter, try some garlic smashed potatoes and fresh steamed veggies drizzled with olive oil and fresh squeezed lime juice. For warmer weather try a fresh watercress salad with pineapple and pecans. What you will need: 1 pound of boneless and skinned chicken breasts Marinate in: 1/3 cup of fresh lime juice ¼ cup of dark rum 3 tablespoons of dark honey 4 cloves of roasted garlic mashed (remember if you don't roast your own, like we've talked about, you can purchase it at your grocers) 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro 1 chipotle chili mashed (chipotle chili's are smoked, dried, red, jalapeño peppers...they are delicious and have a bite like jalapeño but rounded out well from being smoked) 1/3 teaspoon of corn starch Blend marinade/glaze in a food processor and heat on high for about a minute and until glaze starts to thicken. Remove from heat, cool slightly and pour over chicken breasts covering them completely. Let marinate for a few hours and cook making sure chicken is well glazed......yummy! On a grill, cook for about 4 minutes on each side. On the bottom rack from your broiler, about the same and in the oven, about 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Remember cook times vary according to your appliances that you're using so longer times may have to be applied and juices should always run clear. Have fun, enjoy this delicious fare, be blessed and have a wonderful day! Sue | Related Articles | Previous Features | Site Map
