So overall, this is the best chicken I have ever had... that I cooked or eaten out. It is literally the most flavorful chicken in the world!!!! It's pretty healthy, and especially if paired with veggies or fruits, it is an awesome meal that really doesn't take much time. Also leftovers are BOMB!
1 stick unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic (minced)
10 tsp ancho powder (8 in recipe 2ish for seasoning chicken)
1/2 cup hot sauce
2 tbsp honey
salt and pepper to taste4 chicken breasts
2 tbsp cumin (for recipe)2 tsp cumin (for seasoning chicken)
canola oilDirections:
Melt butter in saucepan. Add butter and let cook for around a minute to capture the flavor. Add 8 tsp ancho powder and stir until mostly dissolved. Stir in hot sauce and honey and then the salt and pepper. Remove about 1/4 cup of this in order to save to add on top after the rest has been cooked onto the chicken.
Season each side of the chicken breast with ancho powder and cumin. Our chicken breasts were a tad bit thick and we had a time crunch, so we butterflied them.
Drizzle canola oil over both sides, put about half of the buffalo sauce on the top, and place on medium heat straight on the rack of the grill to make char marks. When it's time to flip the chicken, move it to aluminum foil on the grill to make sure the chicken stays nice and juicy! Then brush on more buffalo sauce.
As soon as the chicken is no longer pink in the middle, take off the grill immediately to avoid making it dry. Serve with the 1/4 cup reserved buffalo sauce and ranch!
* this is somewhat of a spicy dish, but it has great flavor! Spicy-haters shouldn't have to miss out. In order to tone down the spice, add a little less hot sauce and a little more honey! :) deeelish!
