This is a recipe from my Grandma that's kind of evolved over the years, and it never had a name until my sister started calling it Red Chicken. So it stuck, and it's a staple around here for a quick and yummy meal.1/4C Frank's hot sauce
1 stick margarine
1-2lbs chicken
Melt Frank's and margarine together.
Old way/chicken wing method: Marinate in the mixture and then cook on the grill, or bake in the oven for 25 minutes.
New way/chicken breast method: Spray glass dish with nonstick spray, put the chicken in (you can either cut into strips or chunks-that's what we usually do-or put in the whole breast) and pour the mixture over the top and bake for 25 minutes.
And I'll tell you-the mixture, when it's all finished and everything is cooked, is SO GOOD drizzled on top of mashed potatoes!
I LOOVE this chicken! I make it all the time. I started to add half olive oil and half butter. It makes for a different taste, but it's still delicious and a lot healthier. Then I add mozzarella to the top about 5 minutes before it's done. It kind of neutralizes the spicy for those who don't like it too hot.
