Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2-4 canned chipotle chiles (depending on how spicy you like it)
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne

Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a 9x13 pan with foil.
In a blender, mix together the mayonnaise, lime zest, chipotle chiles, cilantro, cumin, cayenne until smooth and slightly pink. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Spread mayonnaise on each leg, place in the pan and cook uncovered for 50 minutes or until juices run clear and the chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Serve hot with lime wedges.
