My husband and I have created many wonderful memories by sharing this meal with our friends. In the winter, we bake it indoors; in the summer, it works well on the grill, too! Either way the chicken pretty much cooks itself, leaving you plenty of time to visit with friends and family. -Ashlie Delshad, West Lafayett, Indiana

Steps:
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat oil over medium-high. In batches, if necessary, cook chicken skin side down until browned, about 7 minutes. Transfer to plate.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add onion and saute until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from pot. Add 2 tablespoons water.
- Add garlic, cumin, and chipotle; cook until garlic is soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, season, and bring to a simmer; cook 5 minutes, breaking tomatoes down with a wooden spoon. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to pot; bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve over rice.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh chipotle peppers. If you can't find fresh chipotles, you can use canned chipotles in adobo sauce. Just be sure to rinse them well before using them.
- If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor to make the marinade. Just be sure to pulse the ingredients until they are well combined.
- Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will give the chicken time to absorb the flavors of the marinade.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat until it is cooked through. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or tortillas.
Conclusion:
This chipotle chicken recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this flavorful Mexican dish. The chicken is marinated in a blend of chipotle peppers, spices, and herbs, then cooked until tender and juicy. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or tortillas, and enjoy!
