My husband came up with this recipe when looking for a creative way to cook chicken. The marinade adds a nice sweet flavor to the chicken that is complimented by the kick of the chipotle ranch sauce. The chicken marinades overnight, but when we came home from work we were able to throw dinner together in under 30 minutes.
