Copycat Chipotle Chicken
""After reviewing dozens of copycat Chipotle Chicken recipes and comparing notes with previous Chipotle employees, I’ve created the most accurate Chipotle Chicken recipe for you to recreate at home. Many other Chipotle copycat recipes are missing key ingredients or cooking techniques. This recipe is the closest you’ll get to the real thing! Color after the first flip should be Dr. Pepper in depth. Charring means you’ve gone too far. Always do skin-side down first, I think that’s what you meant by “flat-side down”. There shouldn’t be excess marinade to drip off but I would guess that’s probably due to the difference in consistency. Chipotle’s marinade is a thick paste, it does not drip." "
