This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken that I needed to use up, and this was the perfect recipe. The chicken was reheated in the sauce and it was just as good as when it was first cooked.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some grilled chicken that I needed to use up, and this was the perfect recipe. The chicken was reheated in the sauce and it was just as good as when it was first grilled.
