elaine's chicken diablo two

Recipe by

This is an easy small dish for 1 or 2 people. I get my chicken thighs from a local organic farmer and the thighs are a generous size. I find the supermarket thighs are quite small so you might want to use 3. I used a baking dish about 5" by 7". Cleanup is easy - prep. and baking all in one dish. You could use parchment in the bottom and sides of the baking dish if you like. The sauce is great with rice. Add a green salad and you have an easy, healthy meal. Double or triple the recipe if you like.
