Orange Chipotle Chicken

Sweet and spicy, spicy and sweet that sounds well sweet! What is this dish that is both of those and it's super healthy? Orange chipotle chicken! I honestly love this recipe! It can either be a spicy chicken or a sweeter chicken. Overall just a great recipe to add to your recipe book, binder, cards, or online doc!

For the chicken:

Around 4-5 pieces of chicken (would you guess that you need chicken for a chicken dish!?)

1 t chile powder

1/2 t ground cumin

1/2 sea salt

1 tsp of oil (coconut, olive, safflower)

Sauce:

1 cup orange juice

2 T maple syrup

1 T chipotle peppers minced in adobe sauce (take seeds out if you don't like spicy)

To serve with:

Around 2 cups of mixed veggies

2-3 cups brown rice or quinoa, cooked to package directions

Pound chicken and slice it up, I cut them in smaller pieces after I took the picture. Heat up oil in the pan and cook chicken with the seasonings (1 t chile powder, 1/2 t ground cumin, 1/2 sea salt).

Now move onto the sauce (sorry there's no pictures!!)

Cook orange juice and maple syrup for about a minute until it thickens stirring constantly. Remove from heat, add chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.

Add sauce and veggies to chicken serve warm with rice or quinoa.

Enjoy!!
