Chipotle Chicken Secrets
04.10.2023 - 14:31 / bhg.com
Even with our best-laid meal prep plans, we’re sometimes left lunchless on the busiest of workdays. Yes, we know it’s almost always healthier and more affordable to assemble something ourselves rather than resort to fast food when the clock strikes noon—but sometimes we forget or run out of time. When this situation arises, we’ll gladly take a grab-and-go option over skipping a meal any day.
One of our most frequent fast-casual stops is Chipotle. It’s customizable, quick, and crowd-pleasing, which means we can grab takeout for the entire team or even outsource catering for lunchtime meetings.
We’ve ordered it so many times that we now find ourselves trying to recreate some of its MVP menu items—from guacamole and pico de gallo to barbacoa and carnitas—in our Test Kitchen so we can savor similar flavors at home on taco night. (And, of course, so we can share these tested and perfected recipes with you!)
Sometimes, Chipotle is kind enough to reveal the tricks of the trade on social media. Earlier this summer, we spotted their 15-second video about their top three tips for juicy chicken, which has since racked up more than 2.5 million views on TikTok and more than 18,300 likes on Instagram. Clearly, we’re far from the only ones who give a cluck about Chipotle’s recipes and techniques.
Of course, we had to take notes before immediately taking off to the Test Kitchen to ask our expert recipe testers and developers if they agree—and if these insider tips could get us closer to replicating the brand’s secret recipe.
Compared to leaner chicken breasts, “chicken thighs tend to be more tender, juicier, and more forgiving on the grill or griddle,” says Sarah Brekke, MS, a Better Homes & Gardens Test Kitchen culinary specialist.

Ferns have been on the planet for more than 300 million years—about twice as long as flowering plants—and in recent years breeders with sophisticated eyes have introduced extra-showy varieties for our gardens.No wonder there is a focus on ferns, since they are naturally deer-resistant, mostly adapted to shady gardens, and hey, you don’t need to deadhead them since they’re not flowering plants. You can’t attribute any of those qualities to, say, a daylily.On my radio show and podcast, Tony treated me to a 101 on ferns and how to use them in the garden (that’s a tiny section of the 28-acre private nonprofit Juniper
