I have also been known to give away my second cup of marinade to a friend to share my joy in this recipe. The Chipotle Chicken Marinade.

I am not the first person to undertake the quest for Chipotle’s chicken marinade. Many have come before me, most notably Matt Silverman of Chipotle. Fan.  His recipe has inspired my version in a very direct sense. However, I have made it enough times that I think I can offer some original unique insights into the preparation and use of the ingredients as well as the recipe itself. In fact, over time I have developed a lot of useful recipe information as you’ll see below. Marinade Method 1: Soaking Dried Ancho Chiles (Slow- Soak and Quick- Soak Methods)Slow- Soaking the dried ancho chiles takes at least 1.

Once the chiles are soft, I like to open them up, remove the stems, and rinse out the seeds (I recommend using kitchen or latex gloves). For additional heat, add in seeds from the chipotle peppers. The Quick- Soaking method was identified by one of my readers (THANK YOU, RYAN!). I tested it and it exceed my expectations. To shave 1. 2 hours off this recipe is nothing short of a miracle.

You toast the dried chiles in a skillet and microwave them in water. It works perfectly! Marinade Method 2: Using Ancho Chile Powder.

Ancho Chile Pepper powder is available for purchase, or you may make your own. However, as one helpful reader pointed out, you won’t wind up with 2 cups of marinade if you simply use Ancho Chile Powder. The process of soaking the dried chiles adds more liquid to the marinade, so you need to add that in if you are using the powder. I have tested this, and it’s pretty easy to compensate for the missing liquid. Once your marinade is finished (the last step is adding the oil), pour the marinade into a measuring cup. If you don’t have quite 2 cups, add water until you do.

This marinade will SEEM runny, but it works just as well. And it should: There is a lot of water in the chiles when you soak them overnight in Method 1. Obviously you can add water to your Ancho Chile Powder. Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce.

If you aren’t familiar with Chipotles in Adobo, this ingredient gives food a distinct smoky taste. You only need the Adobo sauce for this recipe, not the chipotle peppers (you can discard them or use them in another recipe such as my Vegetarian Stuffed Peppers). I use a strainer to separate the peppers and seeds from the adobo. I definitely recommend wearing latex or vinyl gloves during this process. There are many brands of Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce. It turns out that some brands have more chipotles in the can, others have more adobo in the can.

You should be able to extract at least 1/4 cup of adobo sauce out of any 7- ounce can you buy, but Embasa in particular has 1/2 cup or more of adobo sauce in a 7- ounce can. Why does that matter? If you are using Method 2 above, the amount of water you will add to reach 2 cups will be more or less depending on which brand of chipotle peppers you are using. A note on gluten in chipotle peppers with adobo sauce: Many brands do not have gluten, especially imported brands such as La Morena and La Costeña. If gluten is of interest to you, please read the label before moving forward as some contain wheat. The Chicken. Chipotle uses boneless, skinless chicken thighs which yields tender, juicy pieces of chicken. However, I have also tested this recipe with boneless, skinless chicken breasts and have some tips on cooking that, too.

Cooking Method 1: Grilling or Stove- top Cooking (Preferred for Dark Meat)Grilling is the best option if you have the equipment and talents. Here is the grill I have and love). Grilled Chipotle Chicken tastes the closest to the Chipotle restaurant chicken and also has the least amount of cleanup. If you don’t have a grill, though, fear not! I have made this recipe dozens of times indoors. I have tried using a flat- top indoor cast- iron grill and a large cast- iron skillet with a cover.

I preferred the skillet because it helps prevent a lot of grease and marinade spatters. Also, being able to cover the skillet meant the chicken could cook through more easily. Last, the cast iron skillet collected bits of fond which contributed to the most delicious, caramelized pieces of chicken in the whole batch.

Tangent: the foil- covered brick. Other Chipotle Chicken recipes recommend flattening your chicken with a brick. Yes, I went to the gardening section of my local discount store and picked up a paver for forty- eight cents. I covered it in foil.

I laid it on my cooking chicken in various stages. I found the whole thing to be very awkward and scary.

The brick became extremely slippery. If you’re really into that sort of thing, a safer idea is to invest in a cast- iron grill press. It has a handle and has other uses as well if you’re into grilled sandwiches. Cooking Method 2: Baking (Preferred for White Meat)If you want to go the boneless, skinless chicken breast route, Chipotle baked chicken is your friend! It turns out there is a fool- proof method for tender, juicy chicken breasts. Who knew? Place the marinated chicken breasts in a baking dish and cover with parchment paper, tucking the paper around the sides so the chicken is completely covered.

It works like a charm! Cater Your Own Party. Because this Chipotle Chicken recipe makes enough marinade for 1. IDEAL for parties.
