Grilled Chicken is a staple at our house. We'll pick up packs like this when they're on sale, cook 2, then split the rest up into twos and add a marinade and throw them in the freezer. Heck, there was a time I had to put Dawn on chicken restrictions and wouldn't allow her to buy anymore till we went through some of our stash.
We normally do the marinade, and let that be, but wanted to switch it up a little bit. It was Friday night, let's get crazy.
Injected two breasts with the Stubb's Chipotle Butter injection and then rubbed them down with Simply Marvelous Sweet & Spicy Rub.
Dawn wanted zucchini chips, and since this is one of the FEW ways I'll eat zucchini ... I said sure. She also brought us home a fresh pineapple, so that was going on the grill with the chicken.
It looks a little darker than usual, but that's just the rub ... it's not burnt.
And if you're wondering about all of the moisture on the plate. When I covered it with foil to rest, it did that.
The Chipotle Butter injection gave the chicken an almost, silky feel, and the Sweet & Spicy Rub gave it a little kick. The zucchini chips and pineapple were just amazing. Since the weather was set to be in the 70s for the whole weekend, a Summer Ale had to go with dinner. If for nothing else, a soft cry for warmer weather.
