| 1. *Note: Add more jalapeños to taste. I reduced the amount significantly from the original recipe adding about 2 tablespoons total of fresh jalapeño and serrano chili peppers. | 2. Wet Rub: In a blender, combine the chipotles with adobo sauce, white onion, jalapeño, cilantro and lime juice. Add a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. | 3. Transfer to a large glass mixing bowl. Fold in 3/4 cup of mayonnaise. Taste and adjust seasonings. If it is too spicy, add more mayonnaise. | 4. Add the chicken pieces, turn to coat, then cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, turning occasionally. | 5. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. | 6. Place the almond meal/breadcrumbs on a large plate. Stir in the lime zest then coat the chicken pieces on each side. Transfer the chicken to an oiled (olive oil) roasting pan or large pie dish. {{Important}}: *Discard* the chipotle-mayonnaise mixture and breadcrumbs. | 7. Bake until the chicken is no longer pink, the juices run clear and the breadcrumbs are nicely brown, about 45 minutes. Note: if the breadcrumbs look like they might start to burn, you can cover the pie pan with aluminum foil. | 8. Let the chicken rest in the pan 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Serve with wedges of lime and garnish of fresh cilantro. | 9. Serving suggestion: The chicken thighs were transferred to a platter of converted rice (not instant) and served along with plain black beans and Recipe #370963 spooned over a bed of baby spinach. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
