Spicy Chipotle Marinated Grilled Chicken with Mango Salsa
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 ripe mangoes, diced
- 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, combine 1/4 cup chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Blend until smooth to make the marinade.
- Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the chipotle marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the excess marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
- While the chicken is grilling, prepare the mango salsa by combining 2 diced ripe mangoes, 1/2 finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 minced jalapeno pepper, and 2 tablespoons lime juice in a bowl. Season with salt to taste and mix well.
- Serve the grilled chipotle chicken with a generous spoonful of mango salsa on top. Enjoy!
