"This is my sister-in-law's recipe for a different swing on chicken. It is very good, and is a true Mexican chicken recipe. Serve it with rice and salad, and don't forget the warmed corn tortillas!"

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Roast the chicken legs in the preheated oven until the skin is crispy, and the meat is cooked through, 30 to 40 minutes.
While the chicken is roasting, puree the milk, sour cream, chipotle peppers, and chicken bouillon granules in a blender until smooth. Melt the margarine in a large pan over medium heat. Pour in the chipotle puree, bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and season with salt to taste. Add the cooked chicken legs, and simmer for about 10 minutes, until chicken has taken on the flavor of the sauce.

The original way of this recipe is boiling the chicken but doing it in the oven is faster and taste better!! You should try it!!!

This is absolutely delicious! I cook a lot of Mexican food and this is one of the best. I used chicken breasts, browned them in butter and olive oil. I added a clove of garlic to the sauce. Those chipotles are HOT! I make salsa with jalepenos and habeneros and this was really hot. I was surprised and pleased. I cut the recipe down to 2 servings and wish I had made more!
