Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken
This marinade has it all, it’s sweet, smoky, tangy, spicy and hot! I really have no heat tolerance but this chicken was so moist and flavourful that I didn’t mind that my lips were on fire and that my tongue had gone numb!
This is what you’ll need
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp honey mustard
4 cloves garlic, peeled
4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
2 tbsp adobo
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp pepper
4 Boneless skinless chicken breasts
This is how you make it
Using a food processor or blender, purée the oil, mustard, garlic cloves, chipotle peppers, the adobo sauce, salt, oregano and pepper together and then slather the mixture all over chicken breasts.
Let the chicken breasts sit in the marinade for 1 hour, up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
Grill according to My Guide for Awesome Grilled Chicken.
Notes:
- Holy crap this is hot… but soooo good 🙂
