Last night was a late night for me... a really late night... as a friend from junior high was in town, whom I hadn't seen in roughly 25 years. Friends came over, wine and cheese were had, karaoke was sung, and the clock kept moving forward well past my bedtime. I knew enough to make sure we knew what we were going to do for dinner, so it could be done early. Frozen chicken thighs at the ready, I went hunting online for a good recipe. Most required lots of marinating time and more ingredients than I had, and I didn't want to run to the store. I came across this one here - anything with chipotle in adobo is tops in my book.
Grilling at night in 60* weather - is there nothing better?
The marinade sounded too good not to boil off and reduce a bit. Until I tasted it, that is. Waaay too spicy with the food-processed chipotle, although flavorful. After the aforementioned wine intake last night, I best leave my delicate system of today as unperturbed as possible.
Wife liked the dish, as she's a fan of thighs. I prefer grilled marinated breasts myself, leaving the thighs for slow cooked food. Either way, it was a good night to fire up the grill.
