Instructions
Step 1
Make the marinade. Add all ingredients for the chili lime marinade to a bowl and whisk together to combine.
Step 2
Marinate the chicken. Place the chicken in a bowl or zip lock bag and add marinade. Turn the bowl or bag over a few times to ensure the chicken is coated well. Refrigerate and allow the chicken to marinate for 6-8 hours. If you are pressed for time, 1 hour will still give you delicious flavor.
Step 3
Preheat the smoker. Preheat the smoker to 225 degrees F.
Step 4
Grill the marinated chicken. Remove chicken from the marinade with tongs and place the breasts directly on the preheated grill. Discard the remaining marinade. Put your thermometer probe in. Close the lid and smoke the chicken for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F.
Step 5
Rest, slice, and serve. Remove the chicken immediately from the grill when it reaches 165 degrees F. Allow to rest 5 minuts before slicing.
Step 6
Store and enjoy leftovers. Leftovers are awesome in tacos, on salads, or in weekly meal prep!
