This was last night's dinner. Original recipe for the Chile Butter came from
Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison, a real bible of
vegetarian cooking. I used my Ring of Fire Cayenne instead of the jalapenos
or serranos she asked for. I used Key Lime Juice for the lime juice, as I
had some in a small bottle. It was delicious, served on top of the chicken
and mixed into the pilaf.

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   4      small         boneless skinless chicken breast halves -- washed &
dried
                        salt and pepper
                        Chipotle Marinade (from bottle) -- or your favorite
                        Butter:
   2                    green chiles -- * I used cayenne
                        zest & juice of 1 lime
   1      stick         unsalted butter
   2      tbsp          cilantro -- chopped
   1                    scallion (green & white parts) -- chopped
          pinch         salt (a few)
     1/4  tsp           ground coriander

For chile butter: In food processor, place chiles and lime zest. Pulse a
couple of times. Add the rest of the ingredients and puree. Put on wax paper
and mold into a cigar shape. Refrigerate, or freeze, until use.

For chicken: Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of chicken. Place in a
bowl and cover with marinade. Refrigerate from 1 hr to 4 hours.

When ready to cook, preheat George Foreman Grill. When hot, remove chicken
from marinade and let excess drip off. Cook for 5 minutes. When done, there
should be no pink inside and all juices should run clear.
