This is my current go-to dish when I want a quick, easy and tasty meal. I CRAVE this dish every once in a while. The sauce has so much depth of flavor. The chicken is moist and tender. The best part about it is that it just takes minutes to prepare. No need to marinade. I recommend using chicken thighs for this dish, but chicken breast will also work.
