I'm going to have twist your arm and insist you make this...it's so unbelievably full of flavor, it left me speechless. That's pretty hard to do. This also does not have to be spicy. For the record, mine was not. I only used 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. The suggested amount is one teaspoon for spicy, but I knew that would leave the kids out, so I went easy.
The trick to this dish is a 24 hour marinade. It infuses the chicken, making it unbelievably flavorful, tender and juicy. It's nothing less than incredible. Honestly, when I tasted it, I wanted to use it as salad dressing.
This is a great weeknight dish but it is by far company worthy. It's sweet and spicy (if you choose it to be) and looks so beautiful. Makes sure to serve it over rice or couscous so you can drizzle the sauce from the pan and catch all the wonderful flavors.
