Quick and Easy Chipotle Chicken Recipe

Step 1

Add the chicken to a wide flat bowl or to a sealable plastic bag.

Step 2

Whisk together the chipotle sauce, lime juice, chipotle powder, garlic powder, onion, powder, cumin and salt. Pour over the chicken. Be sure to rub the sauce into the chicken.

Step 3

Cover, then refrigerate and marinade at least 1 hour. You can marinade overnight for more chipotle flavor.

Step 4

When you’re ready to cook, heat a large pan or your grill to medium-high heat. Add the olive oil.

Step 5

Cook the chicken breasts about 5 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium. Flip the chicken and continue to cook another 7-8 minutes, or until it is cooked through. It should measure 165 degrees F. internally.

Step 6

Let the breasts rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve.
