Note

For crispier skin, broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of baking, watching closely to prevent burning.

You can substitute fresh or canned lima beans; if using fresh, boil them separately until tender before adding to the sauce.

Adjust the chili powder to taste; start with 2 teaspoons if you prefer a milder flavor.

Serve over steamed rice, egg noodles, or with crusty bread to soak up the savory gravy.

Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
