1 tsp garlic powder
-
½ tsp paprika
-
1 tsp kosher salt
-
½ tsp black pepper
-
1 tbsp avocado oil
For the Chipotle Peach BBQ Sauce:

1 medium ripe peach, halved & pitted
-
½ small yellow onion
-
3 chipotle peppers in adobo (use 2 for milder heat)

¼ cup apple cider vinegar
-
¼ cup ketchup
-
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce (or coconut aminos for vegan)

Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat grill to medium-high (400°F). Oil grates well.
2️⃣ Pat chicken dry. Toss with oil, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt & pepper.
3️⃣ Grill chicken 5–6 min per side. Don’t peek too soon!
4️⃣ Grill peach halves & onion cut-side down until charred (about 4 min).
5️⃣ Blend peach, onion, chipotles, sugar, vinegar, ketchup & Worcestershire until smooth. Thin with a splash of water if needed.
6️⃣ Brush chicken generously with sauce in the last 2 mins. Double glaze = magic!
7️⃣ Rest 5 min, serve with extra sauce on the side. Get messy!
Notes
✅ Use thighs for juicier results.
✅ Too spicy? Stir honey into sauce.
