Grilling, Smoking and Barbecuing Recipes
Raspberry Chipotle Grilled Chicken
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 cup fresh raspberries, mashed
- 2 teaspoons mashed chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 frying chicken
- Chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
- Stir together barbecue sauce, raspberries and chipotle peppers in a medium bowl; set aside half of the mixture.
- Rinse chicken pieces and pat dry.
- Cook chicken on a lightly oiled grill over medium heat for 45 to 50 minutes, turning and basting often with half the sauce.
- Remove from grill when chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with reserved sauce. (Discard sauce used to baste chicken.)
Notes
For quicker cooking, microwave the chicken for 10 minutes before grilling. Or use boneless, skinless chicken breasts, which cook on the grill in 10 to
15 minutes.
Shred any leftover chicken to use in a taco salad or burrito.
