Method
Preparation
Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, combine honey, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Cooking
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C).
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is nicely charred.
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, transfer the grilled chicken to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
Serving
Plate and Garnish
Slice the chicken and serve it on a platter. If desired, garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges for an added touch of flavor.
