Spicy Grilled Chipotle Chicken

Spicy Grilled Chipotle Marinated Chicken Thighs

Ingredients:
Note: Normally I do not promote specific products in my recipe, but I just can't resist the flavor that Chipotle Tabasco hot sauce adds.

1/2 bottle Chipotle Tabasco
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
Juice and zest from 1 lime
1 tsp brown sugar
6 chicken thighs
1/4 cup water
kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Preparation:
Add first 4 ingredients to a sealable plastic bag. Stir to combine. Place chicken thighs in to bag with marinade. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible.

Shake the bag up to ensure evenly coated chicken. Allow chicken to marinate, refrigerated, for 2-24 hours until ready to grill.

Prepare grill for medium-high heat.

Remove chicken from the marinade and pour the marinade into a small saucepan. Season both sides of the chicken with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper.

Add 1/4 cup water to the saucepan containing the marinade and place over high heat. Bring to a boil then immediately remove from the heat and reserve for basting.

Place chicken thighs skin-side down onto the grill over medium-high heat. Grill chicken for 8 minutes, then flip and grill for another 7 minutes or until cooked through. Use the reserved boiled marinade to baste the chicken frequently during the grilling process.

Once cooked through, remove from heat and allow chicken to rest for about minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Note: Our grill is down so I'm doing this under the broiler.

Cut the pork tenderloin into 3/4 inch slices.
Pound the slices until each is about 1/4 inch thick.

Dip each slice in the bouillon water and then in the cracker meal.

Note:

I didn't use the water and bouillon, maybe that's why it was a bit plain. I used two eggs, a splash of milk and some hot sauce for the wash. It was a bit plain, but good. Next time I'll use some salt or Tony's.



Served on buns with lettuce and tomotoes with some potato salad and beans.
