This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken in the fridge, and this recipe was the perfect way to turn it into a delicious meal.

Great recipe! The creamy chipotle sauce is the perfect balance of smoky and spicy, and the chicken was cooked to perfection. I served it over pasta, but it would also be great on rice or quinoa.
