Grilled Chili Chicken image

Hot and Spicy, just the way I like it! Plus its on the grill, which is one of my favorite ways to cook. Decrease the amount of jalapeno pepper if you can't handle the heat. You may be able to decrease the amount of red bell pepper depending on the size of your chicken breasts and the size of your bell peppers. Prep and cooking time does not include the 1 hour marinating time.

Time 48m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon chili powder
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, divided
3 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
6 chicken breast halves, skinned and boned (about 2 1/2 lbs)
6 large red bell peppers, cut in half
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine the chili powder, 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, and 2 tbsp olive oil; stir well. Brush the chili mixture on both sides of the chicken breasts. Place in a shallow dish; cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • Grill the chicken over hot coals (400 to 500 degrees) for 5-6 minutes on each side or until the chicken is done. Arrange the chicken on a serving platter; set aside, and keep warm.
  • Brush the skin of the red bell peppers with 1 tbsp olive oil. Grill the peppers, cut side up, over medium coals (300 to 350 degrees) for 6 to 8 minutes or until charred. Cut the peppers into thin strips; set aside.
  • Saute onion, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the remaining 1 1/2 tsp olive oil in a large skillet until the onion is tender. Add the reserved sweet red pepper strips; stir well. Add the cilantro and the remaining 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar; stir well. Remove from heat. Spoon the pepper mixture over the hot chicken. Enjoy!

This was my first time making grilled chili chicken and it turned out great! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the chili sauce was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. The chili sauce was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it.

I'm not a huge fan of chili, but this chicken was still really good. The sauce was flavorful and the chicken was juicy.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't turn out as flavorful as I'd hoped. I think I'll try marinating it overnight next time.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the chili sauce was delicious.

This grilled chili chicken was a hit at my last barbecue! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the chili sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. I'll definitely be making this again.
