We were wanting some spicy chicken...this was really good, did not change the recipe but did not "measure" ingredients! The dish was still juicy & delicious! I paired it with poblanos & mexican rice...mmmmm! =-)

this was a great and easy recipe to make and delicious to eat! i used chicken leg quarters which required a longer cooking time than in the recipe - i also omitted the brown sugar and added a little taco seasoning mix just for the heck of it. overall - amazing! will definitely make again because it was quick and easy and tasted awesome!

This recipe was easy, low calorie and delicious! I did adjust the heat level by using just 1/2 tbsp of cayenne and I only had Frank's hot sauce on hand but that worked out fine as well. I will be making this spicy chicken again!

So quick to prepare with a tasty result. Quite spicy, but we liked it that way. The flavors remind me of hot wings.

A good authentic mexican taco sauce is key to this delicious chicken. I used Rosarita- salsa taquera which is as authentic as you can get from the store (in my opinion) Now the salsa you want to use is not the same kind you use to dip your chips in. This is more of a taco sauce, the kind where you can see all the seeds from the ground up chili peppers. (hope you all know what im talking about ;) My salsa was very hot so i reduced the amount of cayenne by more than half and im glad i did. This was very good! I basted frequently and broiled for the last 5 mins or so. Delicious!

I had a chicken breast out for my lunch and decided to try this. I halfed the sauce recipe, and left out the paprika (i keep forgetting I'm out!) It was really great - I toasted a sesame bun, put some ranch dressing on it and made a chicken sammich. REALLY yummy. I want to try this with bone-in chicken on the grill! I used Crystal hotsauce (the best) and I added a few shakes of garlic powder.

Loved it because I love spicy food and actually didn't think it'd be spicy enough for me. It definitely was, just felt like it was missing something, so I dipped it in some fat-free ranch, which cooled it down a little and made it taste even more delicious!

I followed the recipe as is. It was a little on the spiceier side. It was good, but the sauce didn't thicken as I intended it would. If I would try this recipe again, I would add additional brown sugar.

almost gave this 5 stars if only for the fact that it nearly took my hubby's head clean off -- and he considers himself a hot&spicy heavtweight! will definitely make again but will turn down the heat level (a tad for us, alot for "mere mortals"). quick, simple and loads of fun.

So easy! I used bone-in, skinless thighs and Valentina hot sauce - followed recipe exactly. Quite spicy and very tender. I served with long grain brown rice + sauteed vegetables (carrots, onion, zuch, corn, chickpeas ...) Will make again and again. Great recipe with only 5 ingredients!
