Sweet 'n' Spicy Chicken
My
husband and three children love this tender chicken that has a spicy
sauce. Peach preserves add just a touch of sweetness, while taco
seasoning and salsa give this dish some kick. This entree can be made
even zippier yet by adding more taco seasoning and using spicier salsa.
