We love this chicken recipe. I don't know who it's from, but it's on a worn piece of paper in my recipe box. Very tasty, and so easy. The sauce gets thick and coats the chicken so nicely. You can control the heat by increasing or decreasing the amount of pepper flakes. I also like to add more garlic, about 5 cloves total. Great with rice and a steamed veggie, and the kids like it too.
