Tips:
The best results can be obtained using espresso coffee but a strong regular homemade coffee can give you great results. Just put a cup of water in your coffee machine with 3-4 spoons of your coffee.
If you have time enhance the flavors by marinating in a cool place the chicken meat in the coffee based sauce mix for up to 2 hours. Flip from time to time. For more information check The Ultimate Guide to Grilling Marinades and Dressing Sauces ↪
Instead of chicken breasts you can use any other cut of chicken or other white meat such as turkey.
