🥄 Step 1: Prepare the Marinade

In a blender or food processor, combine chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and thick. Add honey for a touch of sweetness if desired.

🥣 Step 2: Marinate the Chicken

Place the chicken in a large bowl or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Make sure all pieces are well coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for best flavor.

🔥 Step 3: Cook the Chicken

Grill Method: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side, until fully cooked and charred.

Oven Method: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place chicken on a baking tray and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway.

Stovetop Method: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken 6–8 minutes per side until nicely seared and cooked through.

🍽️ Step 4: Rest and Slice

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows juices to redistribute and keep the meat tender.

🌮 Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Serve it in tacos, burrito bowls, over rice, or with grilled veggies. Garnish with cilantro, lime wedges, or your favorite salsa!
