Description

Honey Chipotle Chicken is a delectable main dish that combines sweet and smoky flavors. This quick and easy recipe features juicy chicken coated in a sticky, flavorful glaze made with honey and chipotle peppers, perfect for a family dinner or entertaining guests.


Ingredients

– 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

– 1/4 cup honey

– 2 tablespoons adobo sauce from canned chipotle peppers

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 tablespoon olive oil

– 1 teaspoon ground cumin

– 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

– 1/4 teaspoon salt

– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, honey, adobo sauce, garlic, olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the chicken evenly.

2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken mixture and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze has thickened.

3. Serve the Honey Chipotle Chicken immediately, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

For a spicier version, add an extra tablespoon of adobo sauce. The chicken can also be baked in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes instead of cooking on the stovetop.
