Marinated Chicken in Chipotle

Servings: 8

Ingredients:
4 cloves of garlic
2½ guaque chiles (dried)
¼ cup finely chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons of honey
3 tablespoons of vegetable oil
2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
½ tablespoon of ground cumin
8 de-boned chicken breasts
Lime juice
Pepper to taste

Directions:
1. Using a food processor or blender, add the garlic and chile guaque, and process until they are finely chopped. For the best results, soak the chiles in boiling water until they soften before placing in the food processor. Immediately add the cilantro, honey, oil, vinegar, lime juice, cumin and black pepper, and process some more until they form a uniform mixture.
2. Pour the mixture onto the chicken breasts, cover, and refrigerate for a while or overnight. The result is better if the chicken is sealed in an airtight plastic bag or container.
3. After marinating the chicken, place on a heat resistant sheet or pan and bake at approximately 350 F. Bake the chicken for 8 minutes on each side until it is well cooked inside.
