Chipotle Chicken

Ingredients:

8 boneless, skinless chicken tenderloins
2 Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced*
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 packet of taco or fajita seasoning

Directions:

Place chicken in bowl.
In measuring cup or bowl combine minced chipotle peppers, oil, and seasoning packet. Mix well.
Pour mixture over chicken, and toss to make sure chicken is well coated.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Cook chicken either in skillet (no need to add any oil to pan if using a non-stick pan) or on grill until fully cooked (about 5-6 minutes per side).
Remove chicken from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.

Serve whole or chop/ shred chicken for burritos, fajitas, or rice bowls.

*2 peppers is pretty spicy, so if you may want to start with only one pepper unless you like it really spicy then you may want to increase the amount of peppers!
