    Very Good
    This is almost exactly the same as the Spicy Crockpot Chicken recipe I found years ago, except instead of onion powder we use a chopped onion. Other alternatives to put it over include couscous and sauteed squash ribbons. I also like to include some steamed or sauteed veggies on top with the sauce. - 9/1/11
