"Our favorite restaurant in Arizona serves this delicious chicken dish. I found a jar of the sauce and thought it was just a matter of heating it up. But no, it's much more complicated, plus the directions were in teeny tiny letters and in Spanish. They were so small I couldn't even use Google translate. So I went to several sites and found a couple recipes using this sauce and this is what I came up with!"
