EASY SPICY MEXICAN-AMERICAN CHICKEN



Easy Spicy Mexican-American Chicken image

My husband is Mexican, and he loves spicy chicken from the supermarket. I was trying to recreate one of the spicy packaged chicken dishes at home, and that's what i came up with. Chicken thighs are softer and juicier. It is very spicy and tangy, easy to make, and he loves it!
