Reviews
This was a lot of work. My family just said it was okay. My son thought you could get almost the same results with a can of chili.
The sweet spices, peppers, chocolate and nuts make a complex sauce bursting with flavor. I can't wait to have some more!I used two breasts and other pieces of chicken as well, and it worked fine.
