Very tasty recipe. We really enjoyed the spicy seasoning rub along with the avocado sauce. I changed the sauce abit to our preference, I increased the garlic abit & didn't add the water (liked it abit thicker). Once the chicken was done cooking, I spread the sauce on the chicken in the pan, returned the lid & turned off the heat. This way the sauce warmed up slightly before serving. Great recipe with all my favorites, thanks for sharing.
