This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful. I would recommend using less chipotle next time, or omitting it altogether if you don't like spicy food.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and they were cooked through in just 10 minutes. The sauce was a little too spicy for my taste, so I added a bit of honey to balance it out. Ove
