Five stars, this is fantastic, and addicting! I've made it several times. We don't like overly hot, so I cut the chipotle to 1/2 teas, but double date cumin, ginger & cinnamon. To make it thicker, use 2 teaspoons of chicken stock base instead of the can of broth. Actually BETTER served on rice!

Great base recipe. I love all the combinations of flavors. That being said, I always double the spices with the exception of salt. If i go with the fast high method, I saute the onion before hand. If I really want to liven up the flavor I add spicy peppers as a Lauren suggested. I often use chicken breast instead of thighs often. I cook mine in a small crock pot, so the breast doesn't taste dry.
