Instructions: Last night I made dinner using that fabulous Mexican cookbook, recipe for "Chicken with Spicy Prune Sauce." This is a combination that had never crossed my mind, and now I see all sorts of possibilities using the sauce. Its mouth-wateringly delicious!

Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet with a lid. Add the chicken pieces and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Season with salt.

Remove chicken, add onion and sautee until onion becomes limp. Pour off any excess oil. Return chicken to skillet, lower the heat and cook gently for another 5 minutes.

While the chicken is cooking, put the prunes, raisins and chipotles in a blender with some of the cola. Blend until smooth. Continue to blend in the remaining cola.

Pour the prune sauce over the chicken, stir, and simmer over medium-low heat, covered, about 30 minutes, until the chicken is well done and the sauce thickened. Taste for seasoning and add more salt if necessary.

Remove chicken to a hot platter and pour the sauce over the chicken."
