Let's Make Honey Chipotle Chicken

My favorite thing to do whenever my man says he likes something is to learn how to make it. So that way he could be like, damn, my man does everything. Stop it. Get some help. But no, seriously, when Chipotle came out with their honey chipotle chicken, Freddy was like obsessed. So I was like, we could easily make this for meal prep. But he was like, you can make this? Bitch, yes, I can make it. So let's make it. First thing we're gonna want to work on is the marinade for the chicken. Okay? So in a bowl, I have about 5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Now for the marinade, you're gonna get chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. You're gonna do like four chipotle peppers. Just the chipotle peppers, don't take out the adobo sauce, 'cause we're gonna save that for later. We're gonna do the juice of two limes. And then about two tablespoons of olive oil. And then about a half a cup of honey. And then the rest of the adobo sauce. Obviously take out the big chipotle peppers. Give that a good mix. Now we're gonna put our chicken thighs in season with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and some ground cumin. And paprika. And then add our sauce. Go ahead, scrub in. Just mix it all in. Look at that. In your chicken thighs, season with salt. Garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and some ground cumin. And paprika. Add our sauce. Go ahead, scrub in. Just mix it all in. Look at that. Now we're gonna take it out. We're gonna put it in a metal bowl and we're gonna let it rest for 10 minutes. Our chicken has been resting for 10 minutes. Now it's time to chop it up. And Freddy likes his in like little tiny bite sizes. What my man likes is what he gets. Our chicken is all diced up. You're gonna take the drippings from the chicken, okay? There's gonna be that much. Mine left about like two tablespoons. Add the juice of one lime. Two tablespoons of honey. And the rest of the adobo sauce. Obviously take out the big chipotle peppers. Give that a good mix. And then add just a little bit of salt. Put your chicken back in the bowl. Look at that chicken. And I also made my famous cilantro lime rice. Now all that's left to do is to portion. And just like that, we have meal prep. Like get into it. Your meal. My love. Thank you, baby. The chicken.
