Spicy Steamed Chicken in Parchment
In this recipe, chicken is marinated overnight in a tangy, spicy Mexican sauce, wrapped in parchment paper, steamed until moist and tender, and served with rice. This unique way of cooking chicken ensures the most tender meat you have ever eaten. Try it with pork or beef too! Tone it down by including fewer or no chipotles.

Cook's Notes:
You can substitute the chipotles or remove them, but do not substitute the anchos, as they are mild and give a good, raisin-like, earthy flavor to the dish.
I do not recommend boneless chicken.
