I made this recipe exactly as written with no deviations. I made this as a dipping sauce for tortilla chips and we loved it so much I decided to make it the next night and use it as a sauce over chicken enchilada's. HOLY SMOKES! Chicken and jalapeno's are a match made in heaven and this delicious sauce did not overpower and cancel out the delicate chicken breast. I will be making this recipe often! I have new plans to use it as a the sauce for a chicken and prosciutto pizza. Thanks, Tina Rose, for such a tasteful and versatile recipe!
