Copycat Chipotle Honey Chicken

Chipotle Honey Chicken

This Copycat Chipotle Honey Chicken is my new obsession! Tender & juicy chicken marinated in a sweet & spicy chipotle honey sauce. It's the perfect balance of oooh! and OOOH! This sweet and smoky chicken tastes just like Chipotle’s limited-time favorite and is even better piled into burrito bowls at home. Finish it with a drizzle of honey for that extra touch of delicious!

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl or ziploc bag, add all ingredients other than chicken thighs. Seal and mix together.
    8 oz chipotle sauce, 4 cloves garlic, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp cumin, 1 lime, 2 tsp coarse sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • Add chicken and seal.
    2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • Marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Sear chicken thighs over medium high heat for 3-4 minutes on each side until temp is 175º
  • Dark meat can cook to a higher temp and not dry out - it will actually make it more tender
  • Chop chicken and drizzle with honey. Serve in burritos or bowls.
