Ingredients

  • 2 chipotle chilies with adobo sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 lb boneless and skinless chicken breasts
  • To serve: lime wedges, chopped parsley, or cilantro to garnish

Instructions

  • In a small food processor combine the 2 chipotle chilies with honey, vinegar, oil, coconut aminos, and seasonings. Process until almost smooth.
  • Pour the chipotle mixture over the raw chicken breast, and stir to coat. Marinate for 1 hour or overnight, in the fridge. Remove the marinated chicken from the fridge, 30 minutes prior to cooking.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan over medium heat. Grill the chicken breast until nicely charred and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

Notes

Place leftovers in an airtight container or in ziplock bag. They will keep in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. You can also freeze the chicken in a freezer-safe container or bag for up to about 3 months.
