Ingredients

1 clove garlic
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoon water

Cooking Directions:

Marinade: Chop the chipotle then place in a mini-food processor or food mill along with the chopped basil and garlic clove. Chop then add the juice, water, and tomato. Pulse, letting some texture remain.

Put chicken in a plastic container or a sealable bag. Pour the sauce on top. Cover and rid the container of as much air as possible. Marinade about 4 hours.

Grill chicken in a dry grill-pan (ridged), about 5 minutes per side (depending upon thickness). Deglaze the pan with the marinade, adding water, and making sure the marinade bubble sufficiently to cook thoroughly. Serve sprinkled with chili-seasoned nuts (optional).
