2 habanero (less or more depending on your heat preference) diced

Mix it all up and marinate the chicken in this lovely blend overnight if possible. The longer the better. I don’t mean like a month…but you know, a couple days is better! Grill on medium or cook 20 minutes at 450 in the oven. Serve over rice or with a salad. As the late Julie Childs would say, “Bon Appetit!”
