Ingredients
4boneless, skinless chicken breastsfillet removed
1tspgarlic powder
2tspsmoked paprika
1tspmadras curry powder
1tspcumin
1tspkosher salt
1Tbspdark brown sugar
Instructions
Mix the seasoning together in a small bowl.
If your butcher did not remove the fillet from the breast, do that now.
Then place the chicken breasts into a large resealable bag. Dump the seasoning blend into the bag and then seal, pressing the extra air out of the bag. Massage the chicken breasts to coat with the seasoning.
Place chicken in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the chicken to absorb the seasoning. Massage at least a few times while it sits to help make sure the chicken is fully coated.
When you are ready to cook, preheat your smoker to 250 degrees.
Place the chicken directly on the rack and close the smoker.
Cook for approximately 1 hour and 15 min and then check for doneness using a meat thermometer.
When the chicken is between 160-165 degrees remove from the smoker.
Cove the chicken with foil and let it sit for 10 minutes before serving.
