Chicken in Creamy Chipotle Sauce image

This is an easy, creamy and spicy dish, that can be served in about 45 minutes or less, depending on the chicken pieces you choose. Make it as hot as you like. Serve accompanied with white Mexican rice and a side of steamed vegetables. Adjust baking time if using boneless chicken breast so that they don't dry out.

The sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. I'll try it again with less chipotle pepper next time.
