Creamy Spiced Baked Chicken

There are some blogs I like to follow that post religiously every day or every week.  You may notice I make no promises about how often I am going to post.  That's because I don't want to post just anything but only the recipes I think are really great!  I try new recipes all the time, but only the very best make my list of keepers and end up here for you to read.  That way, you can be sure that every recipe you find here is absolutely guaranteed to please!  This tasty chicken dish is simple but amazingly delicious.  It takes a bit longer than I usually like to wait for dinner, but it was totally worth the wait.  Make sure to serve the extra sauce on the side because you will want every bite to be slathered in it!
