Easy Chipotle Adobo Chicken Marinade

1

Trim and Prep Chicken:

1

Trim any excess fat from your chicken. Place in a large mixing bowl and set aside.

2

Make the Marinade:

1

In a blender or food processor, combine garlic, onion, cilantro, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, adobo seasoning, chipotle peppers in adobo, salt, olive oil, and lime juice. Blend until thick and well combined.

2

Marinate the Chicken:

1

Pour the marinade over the chicken, tossing to coat every piece evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but overnight.

2

Cook the Chicken:

1

Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little olive oil. Cook chicken for 5–6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and nicely charred. Internal temp should hit 165°F. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

2

Serve It Up:

1

Top with fresh cilantro and enjoy. This chipotle-style chicken goes crazy in burrito bowls, tacos, salads, or quesadillas. Honestly, it’s good with anything.
