Chipotle Chicken

This is a super easy, super fast recipe - perfect for a during the week meal.  If I had my own TV show, this would certainly be a 30-minute meal.

Chipotle Chicken
4 chicken thighs
1 large can chipotles in adobo sauce
1 onion, quartered
1 large bunch cilantro
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup water
salt, to taste

In a food processor, blend chipotles, cilantro and onion until a paste consistency.
Season chicken with salt.  In a large skillet, heat oil and brown chicken on both sides, about 4-5 minutes on each side.  Add processed paste and water.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce to a simmer and cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes, until chicken is cooked thoroughly.

This is a pretty spicy chicken, so you can reduce the amount of chipotle peppers you use, if you prefer a milder version or to make it more kid-friendly.
