Hats off to Bobby Flay for this great recipe. I live in AZ and with the temps well over 100 don't want to heat up my kitchen. This was so easy to make and the flavor was fantastic. The hen was moist and flavorable, the sauce is great for dipping if you prefer extra flavor. Will make this next time I entertain.
