To get started 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 cook that.

The ingredients needed to make Grilled Chipotle Adobo Chicken:
  1. Take 3 tablespoons olive oil
  2. Make ready 2 ounce lime juice- fresh squezzed is best
  3. Get 2 large garlic cloves, finley chopped
  4. Make ready 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  5. Make ready 1 teaspoons paprika
  6. Get 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  7. Prepare 1 tablespoon cumin
  8. Prepare 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  9. Prepare 4 teaspoons sugar
  10. Prepare 3 Tablespoon chipotle in adobo -pureed (I do a 7 ounce can in the food processor)
  11. Get 6-10 pieces boneless chicken thighs (you can use breast however thighs stay juicer:)

That's what it's all about, a simple marinade and perfectly grilled chicken, no fuss, all taste. This chicken is grilled after being marinated in a spicy marinade. The chipotle chiles give the marinade its smoky flavor. You can increase the heat to your liking with your favorite hot sauce.

Steps to make Grilled Chipotle Adobo Chicken:
  1. 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.
  2. Mix together the marinade ingredients. If you like it spicier add a little more of the chipotle in adobo puree.
  3. Trim off excess fat from the chicken thighs-you do not need to get ride of all fat:)
  4. Place the chicken and the marinade in a gallon zip-lock bag and marinate for 6 hours to overnight. More time gives better flavor.
  5. 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.
  6. Let sit for 10 minutes after cooking and thinly slice. You may want to squeeze a little lime and adjust salt to your taste.

Habanero hot sauce works best, as very little is needed to increase the heat without changing the flavor of the marinade. In a food processor, blend onion, garlic, chipotle pepper and adobo sauce, oil, lime juice, oregano, and cumin until smooth. Grilled chicken with a spicy chipotle-ancho chile pepper marinade is a copycat version of the restaurant chain Chipotle®'s chicken.. We've made it several times, and the only step we change is using canned chipotle peppers in adobo, mainly because I forgot to buy dried ones in bulk. Dice chicken and serve in tacos, burritos, or on top of a rice bowl.
