• 2 1/2 - 3 lbs chicken pieces
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup green pepper, finely chopped
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 (7 1/2 ounce) can tomatoes, diced
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1/4 of a unsweetened chocolate square (1/4 oz)

1. In a large skillet brown the chicken pieces in hot butter for 15 minutes. (Medium heat, unless your stove runs hot, then medium low) Season the chicken with a little salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet, setting the chicken pieces aside.
2. In the same skillet, cook the onion, green pepper, and garlic in the pan drippings till the vegetables are tender (medium to medium low heat). Do not burn the garlic. Add undrained tomatoes, beef broth, sugar, chocolate, chili powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and hot pepper sauce. Stir to combine the ingredients and to melt the chocolate.
3. Add the chicken; cover and reduce the heat. Cook about 45 minutes or until the chicken is tender.
4. Transfer the chicken to a heated serving platter. Keep warm.
5. Combine the cold water and the cornstarch. Stir into the sauce. Cook and stir till thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Pour the sauce over the chicken.
