Straw and Hay image

Years after I clipped this recipe from a local newspaper, it's still one of my husband's and my favorites. Sometimes I substitute shrimp or scallops for the ham. We can't decide which way we like it more!

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but other than that it was really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful. I would definitely make this again, but I would use less chili powder next time.
