Chile Rubbed Grilled Chicken
Ingredients
  • 4-6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely grated
  • 2 t. ancho chile powder
  • 2 t. ground cumin
  • 2 t. ground coriander
  • 2 t. paprika
  • ½ t. chipotle chile powder
  • 2 T. fresh lime juice, plus lime wedges for garnish
  • Kosher salt, black pepper
  • 2 Creole tomatoes, diced
  • 4 tomatillos, husked, rinsed and diced
  • 1 medium red onion, diced
Instructions
  1. Butterfly the chicken breasts. Open like a book so that the breasts lie flat but do not cut all the way through.
  2. Combine 1 T. olive oil, garlic, ancho chile powder, cumin, coriander, paprika, chipotle chile powder, 2 t. lime juice and 1-2 t. salt in a large bowl.
  3. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  4. Preheat grill.
  5. Make the Salsa: Toss tomatoes, tomatillos, red onion and rest of lime juice in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  6. Brush the grill with olive oil. Grill the chicken, turning once, until grill marks show and cooked through, about 5-8 minutes per side, depending on thickness of chicken.
  7. Top with salsa and serve with lime wedges
