Ingredients

  • ¼ cup ground black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons smoked paprika

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded flat

  • 2 tablespoons ground chipotle

  • 2 cubes vegetable bouillon, or more to taste

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh rosemary

  • 16 baby carrots, chopped

  • 2 shiitake mushrooms, sliced (Optional)

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • 5 cloves garlic, chopped

  • 1 pinch ground chipotle, or to taste

  • ¼ cup barbeque sauce

Directions

  1. Mix black pepper and smoked paprika together in a bowl; season 1 side of each chicken breast with black pepper mixture. Flip each chicken breast over and season the other side with about 1 1/2 teaspoons ground chipotle per chicken breast. Wrap chicken breasts in plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.

  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil; add vegetable bouillon and rosemary. Stir carrots, mushrooms, celery, and garlic into boiling broth; cook until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Strain vegetables from broth using a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl.

  3. Preheat the grill to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Soak 8 toothpicks in a bowl of water.

  4. Remove plastic wrap from chicken breasts and place chipotle-side down on a work surface. Spoon the vegetable mixture onto each chicken breast; roll chicken breast around filling. Secure each breast with 2 toothpicks. Season outside of rolls with more ground chipotle.

  5. Grill chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Brush chicken breasts with barbeque sauce; cook until exterior is caramelized, about 10 more minutes.
