For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the chili sauce mixture. If you prefer a thicker sauce, remove the chicken after cooking and simmer the sauce on saute mode until it reaches your desired consistency. Be sure to watch the sauce closely to prevent burning. Serve with rice, mashed potatoes, cornbread, or your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
