Today I’d like to share with you a magnificent chicken recipe; it’s simple and easy to make but deliciosa. I usually prepare this meal using chicken drumsticks but you can use whichever part of the chicken you prefer. If you have a busy schedule, then this is perfect as you will achieve a delicious result with few ingredients. I’m all for easy cooking, but it’s very helpful to have on hand a few key ingredients that can take a simple preparation to another level. To really give this recipe a special toquecito, prepare the sauce with guava marmalade and the chicken drumsticks will be extra tasty. I hope you enjoy my recipe for guava chicken- the sweet and spicy sauce is finger-licking good!
