This is a wonderful dish I found in "Cooking Light" magazine. This dish if full of flavor and despite all the ingredients, it is very easy to make. It's good served with rice and a flat bread. Braising in a this highly aromatic liquid yields an exceptionally flavorful and tender result.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I would definitely make this again, but I would use less spice next time.
