This is a very rasty dip - I served it with small Swedish rusks, great combination. I had quite a bit left over (it makes over 4 cups) so I poured it over chicken thighs, baked them for 45 minutes at 350 and they were wonderful. I used 4 cloves garlic,3/4 tsp Pico de Gallo (instead of chili & Chipotle). Thanks She-Thing for a great dip and chiken shortcut recipe
