Chipotle peppers, actually dried smoked jalapeno peppers, add distinctive smokiness to this dish. A southwestern coleslaw that includes corn, black beans and sweet red pepper would be a perfect partner. When working with hot peppers, wear rubber gloves and be careful not to let hands come in contact with your face.

In small bowl, combine chipotle peppers, butter, coriander, lime rind and juice, cumin, salt and pepper. With fingers, loosen chicken skin along curved side of each breast to form pocket; spread chipotle mixture under skin. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours; add 5 minutes to roasting time.)Place chicken, skin side up, on foil-lined rimmed baking sheet; brush with oil. Roast in 400°F (200°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and no longer pink inside. Broil, watching carefully to avoid scorching, until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes.
